Tasting Note: |
Wine Advocate #158(4/2005) Rating: 86 points Drink:2005 - 2012
A light wine by the standards of this property, this herbaceous, spicy, red currant and plum-scented wine shows weedy notes of green tea intermixed with cherries and some washed-out red currants. It is a pleasant, picnic-styled Grand-Puy-Lacoste to drink during its first 5-7 years of life. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (1/1/2007) Score: 83
Aromas of blackberry and clove follow through to a medium body, with light tannins and a delicate finish. Drink now. –JS
Decanter Rating:
Profound black fruit, concentration. Satin, inky tannins, still very tight and elemental. Drink 2013-19. |
