Score 89/100 · Drink 2012-2027, Robert Parker, Dec 2011
The 2009 has a dense purple color and a sweet kiss of crushed raspberries and jammy black cherries, damp earth, charcoal and a hint of black truffles. Full-bodied, rich and expansive, with well-integrated tannin, acidity, alcohol and wood, this is a relatively structured, seriously endowed wine that will improve over the next 4-5 years and last for 15 or more. Finally, this super terroir is beginning to perform up to expectations. It is located not far from the famous Pavie vineyard on chalky limestone hillsides.

Big and bold on the nose. Very rich and Bovril-like. The fruit is a bit dried out. Impressive build but not much charm. Tart finish. (JR)
