  "Beautiful clarity of fruit here, with licorice, blackberry and currant. Full and silky, long and racy. Dig it. Best ever baby."

  The Wine Advocate
  "An absolutely stunning sleeper of the vintage, this blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc has produced an uncommonly rich, concentrated wine that is one of the very best wines of Fronsac. Opaque ruby/purple in color, the aromatics offer up notes of blueberry liqueur intermixed with kirsch, blackberries, licorice and crushed rock. The wine hits the palate with some serious thunder and lightning (14.5% natural alcohol) and lots of depth, richness and mouth-filling intensity. Consultant Stephane Derenoncourt has made the best wine I have ever tasted from La Rousselle, and it should continue to drink well for at least a decade."

  "Sattes Purpur-Granat. Würziges Bouquet, viel Terroirnoten, ein Hauch Trüffel. Fleischiger Gaumen, tolle Konzentration, nussig, dunkles Malz und schwarze Schokolade im Finale. Massiver, sehr konzentrierter Fronsac, der noch zulegen kann, wenn er seine Tannine verdaut."
