90 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2012

Medium bright red-ruby.  Wild, musky aromas of black raspberry, smoky oak and crushed rock.  Broad, silky, dry and laid-back, with a subtle sweetness to its complex flavors of dark berries, licorice, herbs and black olive.  Finishes ripe and smooth, with big, fine-grained tannins and excellent breadth and length.  An excellent vintage for this chateau.
