Wine-Advocate : 92/100
A beautiful example of the vintage, proprietor Michel Reybier and his top-notch winemaker, Jean-Guillaume Prats, have fashioned an exceptional wine displaying a dense ruby/purple color as well as a sweet perfume of boysenberries, black currants, cherries, pain grille, roasted herbs, and licorice. Medium-bodied with impressive density for the vintage, sweet tannin, and outstanding richness and length, it should be at its finest between 2009 and 2020+.
James Suckling 94/100
Loads of currant and blackberry, with hints of Indian spices. Full-bodied red, with velvety tannins and a long , caressing finish. Round and generous for the vintage. Best after 2011.
