Product Overview

Wine Doctor 15-17.5+/20:

"This has a good a characterful nose, with quite dense honey and pineapple character, and also some botrytis. Rich, deep, concentrated on the palate, appealing, with meaty substance and great texture. The acidity is a touch on the low side, but it has plenty of delicious appeal. From my tasting of 2005 Bordeaux at two years of age…"

James Suckling – Wine Spectator 95:

"This is very concentrated with dried pineapple, honey and caramel. Full-bodied and superdense. Like honey. Massive. This is fantastic. From the former head and part owner of Yquem."

David Peppercorn MW ?????:

"Not for the first time is it clear that this unclassified cru can make wines of 1er cru classé quality. The nose shows marvellously heady opulence and richness, also complex fruit aromas of real beauty. The flavour simply goes on and on, with great complexity, richness and breed."
