This is a dense full bodied wine that will be absurdly expensive in relation to it good quality.It will be interesting to see the opening price and whether Ch Lafite-Rothschild will bow to the inevitable demand from the Far East. (MFW 91-93)(RP 92-94) |

a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon 40% Merlot 6% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot. Sweet dark fruits, very smooth on the palate, fresh, full bodied and along finish. One of the most popular reasonable wines from St Julien. (MFW 90 -92)(RP 92-94) |

Tasted at 9.00am in the morning, gave us all a beautiful fillip to the days tasting. Medium bodied but with firm tannins. It did have a slightly woody flavour on the after-taste but this should dissapear over time, and the quality of this wine should certainly improve over the next decade or so. (MFW 91-93)(RP 92-94) |

This is a most remarkable wine with tannin levels of 99 and 14.5% alcohol. This is mind blowing. However, as puriest of fine Bordeaux this wine does not fit in and could be produced anywhere in the world. Massive nose, huge concentration and power that dominates right to the end. Difficult to give a MFW rating, but with a question (MFW 93-96?)(RP98-100) |
