This refined Pauillac is ideal with grilled red meats (rib of beef, onglet), leg of lamb, game in sauce or mature cheeses (comté, cheddar, cantal). Its structure and richness make it an ideal companion for dishes with character.

A brilliant vintage, made for patient connoisseurs.
Full-bodied, present tannins, red berries, liquorice; with duck.
Medium-bodied, the palate is fresh and clean with herbal sparks and a slight chew to the texture, finishing savoury. robertparker.com
This vintage is outstanding for its display of well ripened fruit, fine, plump tannins, and a good freshness to ensure classic balance.
Gentle, dark, small berried-fruit, blackberry more than cassis. Hint of cedar. Taut and firm but not dry. Embryonic rather than dry tannins. Long, fresh, juicy finish.
Intense aromas of blackberry and smoke. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and long finish. Solid and tight. As it should be.
This is one of the best second wines of the Médoc. Like its elder, this is a classic, elegant wine, with a clear, well-designed structure and a long, fresh final.
Dense nose of black fruit and red plum. Full on the palate, good acidity, ample, elegant tannins, very long finish, a light wine.
