Description

 

Mr Whirly says:

” From one of favourite Bordeaux Château, this wine always gives you class in a glass at a value for money price point. Rich, ripe fruit and still developing well in the bottle.”

Press notes:

” Typically Extracted and powerful ( which is atypical in a vintage like 2008) this offering may lack charm but it is” locked and loaded”, with plenty of background oak, huge black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, medium to full body and a boatload of tannin. Forget it for 8-10 years and drink it over the following three decades”

92/100, Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, May 2011

” Roses, blackberries, currants and wet earth. Full Bodied with velvety tannins and very pretty fruit. Long and Juicy. A delicious wine, very balanced.”

James Suckling, Wine Spectator, April 2009
