Description

"Tasted at the UGC where it was rather ostentatious with dark chocolate and a slightly tinny note on the mid palate that I rated 90/100.Fortunately I was able to re-taste in London in quieter surroundings mid-April.A fragrant nose that is fleshy and ripe with blackberry,cassis,and wild hedgerow.It could do with a little more precision and clarity.The medium-bodied palate is much more harmonious and focused than the one shown in Bordeaux,supple in texture with rounded black fruits.Tight and linear on the finish with a touch of burnt toast,this will be a very fine Gruaud Larose,but it will need 5 or 6 years to meld together.No Malbec this year by the way. Tasted April 2007".
(91-93 Points).

Neal Martin. (RobertParker.com April 2007).


"Shows plum and raspberry aromas,with hints of flowers.Full-bodied,with super well-integrated tannins and pretty fruit on the middle palate.All there in balance and finesse.Best after 2013. 20,000 cases made".
(90 Points).

James Suckling. (WineSpectator.com March 2009).


"Blackish crimson. Zesty nose with the merest hint of oak.Well put together even if embryonic - super smooth and easy and there is absolutely nothing for anyone to object to even if no-one would go to bed dreaming of this wine.I am churlish to even voice a hint of complaint.Very well done,if slightly bureaucratic".
(17/20 Points).
