Nice texture to this red, with aromas of cranberry and mint. Medium-bodied, with velvety tannins and a medium finish. Much better than I remember from barrel. Drink now. Wine Spectator 85/100;

Slightly herbal, with dried rosemary and mint underneath the blackberry character on the nose. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a light finish. Drink now. Wine Spectator 87/100;

Attractive floral and berry aromas follow through to a medium body, with fine tannins and a delicately fruity finish. Light center palate. Drink now.  Wine Spectator 86/100; Well done. Aromas of black truffles and ripe fruit introducing a full-bodied wine with lots of fruit and velvety tannins. A mouthful. Amazing for the vintage in the Médoc. Wine Spectator 91/100;
