Critics reviews

Robert Parker
93/100
Tasted blind at Bordeaux Index’s 10-Year On horizontal. Dark garnet in colour, this has a ripe, vibrant bouquet with boysenberry, briary and cedarwood. Very fine delineation with a background scent of blackberry pastille. The first bottle had a slightly scrawny finish, but the second is far more representative with fine, tensile tannins, ripe blackberry, graphite and cedar with great precision and length on the finish. Excellent.
Tobacco, spice box, cedar, and black currants offer a perfumed, complex introduction to this structured, beefy, muscular St.-Julien. As usual, a battle between the fruit and structure is being waged in this 2001, which appears to be a bit broader and more charming than most Langoa Bartons.
