This has always been a favorite of mine, I used to use as a great example of excellent Pauillac, Bordeaux in the style of Lafite at a 1/10th the price.  Recently the style is gravitating more towards Mouton, but still with quintessential Pauillac character and that classic terrior aroma. - Christopher Miller, Advanced Sommelier

 

"Backward and powerful for the vintage, this blue/purple-colored 2004 exhibits classic creme de cassis, smoke, incense, and spring flower characteristics. Medium to full-bodied, dense, and excruciatingly tannic, this impressively endowed Pauillac is built for the long haul..." Robert Parker
