                                | Tasting Note: | Wine Advocate #171(6/2007) Rating: 89 points  Drink: 2009 - 2022 Rauzan-Segla’s finesse-styled 2004 offers raspberry, cherry, forest floor, and dried herb-like characteristics in its deep ruby/purple-hued, medium-bodied personality. With excellent purity, freshness, and precision, it is not a blockbuster claret, but rather a stylish, elegant, accessible effort with sweet tannin. -Robert Parker
 
 Wine Spectator (3/31/2007)  Score: 90
 Very pretty aromas of blackberry and vanilla. Medium- to full-bodied, with silky tannins and a delightful finish. Not a big wine, but pretty and attractive. Hard not to drink now. Best after 2009. 12,500 cases made. –JS
 
 Decanter Rating:
  Perfumed. Fine, elegant claret, balance in fruit is pure and fragrant. Long claret, richly textured. Very good. Drink 2013-28.

                                | Food Match: | Western food: A perfect complement to lamb, veal, poultry and delicate game. Serve with full flavored foods when the wine is younger. Cuts of beef that are individually grilled and left a bit rarer than normal are a perfect choice if the wine is less than 15 years old. If the wine is more mature, serve it with lamb or beef that is cooked as a roast and not in individual servings. If serving beef, make it less rare than with a younger wine. 
 Chinese food: Roast duck/goose,grilled lamb, roasted suckling pigeon,Spicy shrimps and crabs,dried or smoked meats,braised fish.
