                                | Tasting Note: | Wine Advocate#158 (4/2005) Rating: 89 points  Drink: 2005 - 2017 A fine effort, this medium-bodied, floral and cassis-scented and flavored wine is quintessential Margaux. Elegant, with impressive flavors, concentration, a deep ruby/purple-tinged color, excellent purity, and a long silky finish, it begs for consumption over the next 10-12 years. -Robert Parker
 
 Wine Spectator (3/31/2002) Rating: 85
 Aromas of sweet tobacco and plum with hints of tea. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a simple finish. Lacks a midpalate. Best after 2007. 8,750 cases made. –JS
 
 Decanter Rating:
  Intense, still rather closed. Firm tannins, elegant fruit, good length. Drink 2010-15.
