Always a right-bank favorite of mine.. first time trying the '12. A touch leaner than previous vintages, but same overripe, richly textured palate I love. Mocha, oak, and blackberry dominate the palate while it lives up to every other '12 bordeaux with seamless tannins that are as smooth as ever. A whif of smoke and charcoal linger in the background.. A great drink for the money. — 10 years ago

Pleasantly surprised considering how light it is. Nice fruit and slight spiced aromas, smooth mouthfeel and elegant finish. Lives up to its name, very graceful. — 12 years ago

An elegant and powerful wine made even better poured out of a magnum. Blackberry, cassis, graphite, cedar and cocoa with a taste of that Oakville dust in the finish. Overpriced but lives up to the hype. — 13 years ago

Superb. Huge body, wonderful berries and a hint of tobacco on the nose. Rich, full flavor with big fruit and wonderful weight. Nice balance. A friend got this on close out for $3.99 a bottle so grab it if you can find it!! — 10 years ago

Open for 5 days. Other than maybe a little lactic character, no trace of oxidation. Very soft, generous, embraces my palate lovingly. Lots of layers and detail, good fruit but also savory. De stemmed, SO2 only at bottling. 75% Pinot iirc. — 11 years ago
