Outstanding! and 89-92 Points from Allen Meadows's Burghound: "This is almost as ripe as the Mont de Milieu with a fruit compote nose that displays a hint of exoticism that merges into extremely rich, full, frank and overtly powerful flavors that possess excellent volume, punch and vivacity on the exceptionally pure and driving finish. The acid backbone is firm and despite the ripeness of the fruit, this finishes quite dry and with a seductive texture." (10/08) 88-91 from Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: "Medium yellow. Aromas of lemon, grapefruit and mint. Nicely broad on the attack, then brisk and juicy in the middle; much more tightly wound than the Montmains but not hard. Sets the salivary glands aquiver on the end. This fairly dense wine should gain in elegance with its last months of elevage " (07/08) Please note that this wine is not here at this time, and is being sold on a pre-arrival basis. Arrival is expected in June of 2009.
