Score 88-91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2007
Good dark red-ruby. Pungent aromas of black raspberry, minerals and meat; the masculine side of Corton. Fat, dry, rich and powerful; a classically styled, ripe-vintage wine from a cooler site. Less refined than the Pougets but conveys a thicker sense of extract. This too possesses very good energy, and finishes with firm, building tannins.
