Score 82/100 · Robert Parker, Feb 1996

This wine proved to be more irregular than even Lafite-Rothschild. The most recent tasting in December revealed a spicy, cedar, good but uninspiring, tannic Medoc. Previous bottles have exhibited impressive extract levels, but bottles tasted over the last 7-10 years have been tough and hard, displaying the more negative characteristics of the 1975 vintage.
