Score 90/100 · Drink 2010-2020, Robert Parker, Jun 2010

This beautiful wine, which is just hitting full maturity, reveals plenty of truffle, forest floor, black cherry, black currant, plum, and soy aromas with hints of espresso and white chocolate in the background. The tannins have fallen away in this medium to full-bodied St.-Emilion which offers a fleshy mid-palate in addition to lots of succulence. Enjoy it over the next decade.
