Wine Critic Reviews
This elegant St.-Emilion has filled out nicely over the last decade. From barrel and post-bottling, I thought it might turn out austere, but that does not appear to be the case. It offers a deep ruby/purple color as well as copious aromas of black cherries, crushed rocks, and earthy undertones. While not a blockbuster, it is beautifully balanced and pure, revealing slightly more depth and richness than I expected. Drink it now and over the next 10-15 years.

Moderately saturated red-ruby. Cassis, black raspberry and tarry new oak on the nose. Bright, fresh and firm in the mouth, with dark fruit flavors supported by a solid spine of acids and tannins.
