Parker Review:
The 2008 is a marvelous effort from this property situated adjacent to Petrus and only a stones throw from lEvangile. An amazing effort, the wine exhibits an inky/ruby/purple color, wonderful concentration, a beautifully sweet perfume of caramels, mocha, jammy black currants, and smoky blackberries, a full-bodied mouthfeel, a layered, skyscraper-like texture, and sweet but elevated tannins. Overall, it displays gorgeous freshness and delineation.

Other Notes:
Wow. What a nose. So much fruit and smoky, chocolate and crush dark fruits on the nose. Full body, with layers of velvety tannins and a medium finish. I wish it had a little more on the center palate. But its still outstanding. Give it two or three years of bottle age. 90 points, James Suckling
