Rich black cassis fruits with a gourmet charm from the start. This is lovely, one of the best in terms of readiness to drink over the next few years. And yet you would miss out on its clear future if you did. Lovely depth to the fruit, with the Cabernet and Petit Verdot dominant. A vintage to really recommend, with a more succulent St-Julien character, emphasising a dark black pepper spice alongside the cedar and menthol.�-92/100 Points, Decanter Wine Magazine
