Description

Robert Parker hailed the 2009 vintage as "The finest vintage of Bordeaux that I have tasted in 37 years" and in his tasting notes below confirms that the 2009 Chateau Le Thil is the best wine that this estate has ever produced.

"What's so striking about 2009 - and I haven't seen this kind of excitement since 1982 - is the quality of the Cru Bourgeois and the petits vins and the generic Bordeaux that are available.In short,2009 is the greatest vintage I have tasted in Bordeaux since 1982,of which it is a modern-day version,but greatly improved.

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #188. April 2010).



"This is quite ripe, with a big core of linzer torte, cassis and blackberry fruit, but well-supported by graphite and melted licorice notes. Offers ample breadth and depth, with honest grip through the finish. A rather polished style for a Pessac. Should settle in nicely with mid-term cellaring. Best from 2013 through 2020".
(92 Points).

James Molesworth. (The Wine Spectator. March 2012).


"Deep ruby/purple,its classic Graves nose of tobacco leaf, burning embers and scorched earth is backed up by sweet cassis and black cherry fruit. Medium to full-bodied but overall very elegant and velvety, this is a complex, relatively evolved, delicious and interesting wine that should drink nicely for another 7-10 years. Showing better from bottle than it did from cask, this blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet, which tips the scales at 15.1% natural alcohol, is a sleeper of the vintage. None other than Stephane Derenoncourt is the consultant, and this is clearly the best wine ever produced from this 35-acre estate sandwiched between Carbonnieux and Smith-Haut-Lafitte near the village of Martillac".
(90 Points).

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. February 2012).
