critic reviews

93/100Jane Anson,Inside Bordeaux

More knitted down than the 2005, in the 2002, 2004 vein, with firm tannins, even if they are now melted and integrated, and a sense of control. Dark berry fruits with smoked earth, undergrowth, soot, powerful but subdued, great quality. Slate texture to the tannins, suggesting there are a few more years before this is fully rounded out. This was tasted out of magnum. 55% new oak, Eric Boissenot consultant.

91/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous

Ruby-red. Sexy aromas and flavors of black- and redcurrant, menthol, licorice and nutty oak, lifted by a violet topnote. Supple, classically dry and quite concentrated, with juicy acidity giving cut to the flavors and extending the finish. A sound tannic spine should ensure at least two decades of development in bottle for this very suave Saint-Julien. This has turned out very well.
