Solid, good food wine, could be outstanding in a couple years — 11 years ago
A real traditional heavyweight syrah, perfumed with lavender and green olive, plum pudding and cracked pepper. Mouthfilling and bold, very perfumed and streamlined on the palate. Good mid-palate concentration, and high acid despite 15% alc. comes across as both elegant and burly, plenty of length in the finish but not without tongue-numbing heat. Still, gorgeous. — 11 years ago
This is a 61 and albeit not great in Sauternes that year this wine was in perfect balance of fruits, acids with lengthy backbone. Not as intense as 67 or 59 of course but beautifully elegant. Color as dark golden with touch of hazelnut brown. Neck fill. Perfect cork. — 10 years ago
Not great at first, tight....open for 2 hours, completely different, fantastic — 11 years ago
Wonderful barnyard funk on the nose which persists even after 3 days of being open. Berries and chewy tannins on the palate. Really great food Bordeaux that could hold up to quite a few dishes and most importantly, doesn't lose nuance after a couple days like much lower priced Bordeaux. — 12 years ago
Sometimes you want a beer, then you realize how much crap you need to do before you call it a day. This is it. Nicely dosed — 10 years ago
