The nose is superb. Great attack with impressive volume in the mouth. Long development that evolves gently in the mouth and builds in power on a fleshy structure, with a texture of rare consistency for the vintage. Superb, complex finish. James Suckling : 96/100 ; Lisa Perotti-Brown : 96/100 ; Decanter : 95/100.

Viticulture

The best vineyard on the estate is very similar to Mouton: very warm medium gravel, but according to Professor Enjalbert, the richer, marly and calcareous subsoil (St-Estèphe type) explains the slightly less refined bouquet. The latest vintages showcase very elegant nuances of Havana tobacco that are not found in any other Pauillac cru with this intensity and purity.
