Reviews: "The deep plum/purple-coloured 2001 exhibits notes of melted licorice, barbecue spices, violets, black currants, and a hint of blackberries. Medium-bodied and fleshy, with a cunning style that sneaks up on the palate, building in increments, this pure, rich, concentrated yet elegant, charming effort provides further evidence of this chateau’s strong rebound". PArker Wine Advocate.
"..A touch of leather, scorcher earth, wild strawberry and cranberry. Gains definition with aeration and again a gamey quality. The palate is quite tannic, crisp with blackberry, cedar, strawberry and a touch of spice on the dense, grippy finish. Very good length, a much more demonstrative Margaux. Excellent. Tasted October 2007." Neil Martin Wine Journal 2008.
