94/100Jane Anson,Inside Bordeaux
An excellent vintage, with naturally low yields that by this point Bibi was not pushing in any way, moving towards more natural vineyard management, wild yeasts and fully organic farming. Love the complex nuanced layers of smoke, liqourice, raspberry and savoury redcurrant. Clear spices, one of the most distinctive in terms of its clove, rosemary and Tuscan underbrush in the lineup. Even though only 8 years old, this is lghter in colour and weight than the earlier vintages, clearly showing the changes in winemaking (shorter extraction and less new oak among the more evident evolutions), and putting paid to the idea that you need heavy extraction to deliver intensity and flavour.
