Score 16/20 · Drink 2000-2010, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, May 2009

1995 was better in St-Estèphe than in St-Julien. It was very dry so St-Estèphe benefited from the clay and better water provision . More undergrowth development and that bloody nose but with a firmness of tannin that is unexpected. Cabernet even a little minty. Fine and elegant. Not as long to go and not as concentrated as the 96 but more elegant. (JH)

Score 86/100 · Drink 1996-2006, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

The 1995 exhibits a healthy dark ruby/purple color, gobs of sweet black cherry and cassis fruit, good ripeness, a plush texture, low acidity, and admirable length and richness in the finish. It should develop into a very good, possibly excellent, modestly-priced wine that will drink well for a decade. Last tasted 3/96
