["One of the most beautiful Rauzan-Seglas made in decades, this blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest primarily Merlot and tiny dollops of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot exhibits a gorgeous perfume of spring flowers, subtle mint, black cherries, black currants, licorice, and a hint of new oak. It offers medium to full body, sweet tannins, and a layered mouthfeel that builds incrementally to a sensational finish. Although this beauty is performing well, it remains a decade away from its plateau of maturity. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2030+. - WA, RP (4/2008)"]

["Beautiful aromas of blackberries, chocolate, coffee and currants. Full-bodied, with wonderful ultrafine tannins and structure. Long, long finish. Seriously structured and rich. 2000 in the remake. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. Score range: 95-100 âJS WS"]
