Wine Spectator
"Best-seller with exemplary classicism and unquestionable value for money!"
"Dark, ripe plums, with sweet spices, blue flowers and dry earth. Medium-bodied, with fine, bright tannins and sumptuous blue fruits on the mid-palate. It's polished and restrained, with a lingering finish." (James Suckling 2023) - A must-have for any Right Bank enthusiast!
