Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points
While this wine is powerful and structured, it still manages to tick the boxes of stylish Margaux. The ripe black currant jelly fruits are balanced by the wine's impressive acidity and structure. This is a fine wine for long-term aging.
James Suckling: 93 Points
A pretty nose of blueberries, cherries, dried leaves, truffles and baking spices. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. Velvety, with rich cherry notes and a fleshy, polished and flavorful finish.
