Description

A blend of 64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it is a classic St.-Estephe offering a deep purple color, sweet, smoky, blackberry, blueberry, and cassis fruit, medium body, and zesty acidity. This pure 2004 is not a blockbuster (such as the 2003 and 2000), but rather a refined, linear, fresh wine that will undoubtedly shut down given its high tannin level. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2020+

Score: 91/93 Robert Parker, Wine Advocate (158), April 2005

A very worthy follow-up to the famous 2003 even if the style is different - excellent winemaking here at the moment. Blackish crimson and very little nose at first. Lots of sweet fruit on the front palate, then fine tannins. Sandy, not aggressive tannins. Another very gentle, round wine but with obviously more concentration and reticence than the Dame de Montrose. Relatively advanced. Neat well-mannered - quite a statement in the context of many relatively aggressive wines. Elegant and 'just' 12.8% alcohol. You certainly wouldn't come across this sort of wine anywhere but Bordeaux. Relatively light at the moment but the winemaker is convinced it will put on flesh later, like the 1996s.

Score: 17.5 Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, August 2005

Decanter July 2011 4 Stars " Voluptuous bouquet of blackcurrant, blackberry, coffee, cloves and tar. Bright, complex and attractive wine with firm tannins giving grip. This has swagger, opulence and power; very appetising."
