(We'll reduce item's price when processing your order.) 91 points Wine Spectator: "Shows complex aromas of dark fruits, with bitter chocolate and floral notes. Full-bodied, with pretty, silky tannins. Very well-integrated and long. Builds on the palate. Best after 2013. (3/31/10)"
91 points Wine Enthusiast: "A dense wine, very much in the line of powerful wines from Haut-Bailly. Flavors of bitter chocolate, sweet berry fruits and richness are dominant, the acidity a fine balancing act to give a burst of freshness. (Apr 2010)"
90 points Robert Parker: "An extremely complex bouquet of cedar, unsmoked cigar tobacco, berry fruit, and earth is followed by a medium-bodied, silky textured wine that builds incrementally, impressing the taster with its purity, overall equilibrium, and length. It is a quintessentially, elegant, flavorful wine to drink now and over the next 12-14 years. (Apr 2010)"
17.5/20 points Thierry Desseauve (The World of Fine Wine): "Brilliant and perfectly balanced wine: great color, red-fruit-and-cedar nose, excellent tannic structure, length, and powerful persistence on the finish. (Issue #34; 2011)"

88 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "Bright, dark red. Cherry syrup on the nose, lifted by floral and minty nuances. Silky on entry, then fruity and nicely ripe in the middle; initially seemed a bit chunky but showed more refined red fruit flavors as it opened in the glass. Finishes with easygoing, supple, lightly dusty tannins and attractive floral persistence. (Jul/Aug 2010)"

94 points Wine Enthusiast: "Slowly the potential of this impressive wine is coming out. It is rich, the new wood flavors blending with the ripe blackberry sweetness and tight tannins. Chocolate flavor power through this concentrated wine. (Apr 2010)"
91-94 points Robert Parker: no tasting note given. (Apr 2008)
92 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "Deep ruby-red. The nose shows an almost exotic ripeness but also a high-pitched quality to the aromas of fruitcake, graphite and spicy oak. Dense and intensely flavored but at the same time quite juicy and penetrating, with terrific lift to its dark fruit flavors. An outperformer for the vintage, this rather powerfully structured wine has a serious spine for aging. (Jul/Aug 2010)"
18/20 points Thierry Desseauve (The World of Fine Wine): "Dark color. Blackcurrant and luxurious new-wood nose. Impressive volume; fleshy, with intensely ripe and refined tannins; smooth texture and a long and generous finish. Brilliant. (Issue #34; 2011)"
