Robert Parker (86)

I have only had this wine once in the last ten years. Tasted at the Chateau, it revealed surprisingly delicious, ripe cherry fruit, a textbook Graves nose (tobacco, minerals, herbs), fine sweetness, and a lush, medium-bodied, seductive style. Although the wine has been drinkable most of its life, it exhibits no signs of decline. The color is just beginning to lighten at the edge.
