Critics Ratings
'Deep crimson. Mealy nose rather deminscent of vegetal decay - hints of compost? Round but still quite restrained. It may well open out but the Cazetiers for less money seems a better bet to me.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17+/20 (Aug 2007)
'Deep ruby-red. Wild aromas of black fruits, bitter chocolate and smoked meat. Sweeter on entry than the Estournelles, then powerful and rather closed, and showing a bit less inner-palate detail today. This dense, meaty, chocolatey wine is clearly from deeper soil.' - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 91/100 (Mar 2007)
