  The Wine Advocate
  "Extraordinary freshness on the nose here, with dark, vibrant bramble fruits, restrained leafy notes and leathery, balsamic depth. Some aromas and flavors of sweeter yellow fruit, too. Full-bodied with a dense, velvety attack to the vibrant palate. Sucrosity and a tight, youthful feel, due to the crisp acidity. This is still young, and you feel the warmth of the vintage in the finish. Yet, it’s a classy wine with overall elegance. Drink or hold."

  "Excellent deep crimson colour and some gamey richness on the nose. Vivacious, lovely balance. Finer and more delicate than the Cheval Blanc. Fine-boned – yet slightly furry tannins."

  "A lovely and harmonious red. Beautiful cherry, floral and berry character. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and long, focused berry and milk chocolate flavors. Drink now or hold.--1982 Bordeaux horizontal."
