TASTING NOTE: Relatively soft for a St.-Estèphe, this nevertheless has plenty of firm tannins to project the powerful fruit forward. It has structure and weight, piled with plum juice and acidity. Great aging potential. Cellar Selection. Score - 92 (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Dec. 31, 2010) Price $ 44.95
