SF | Dense colour, with an attractive nose, savoury elements and flowers from the kitchen garden. The palate imbues salinity and a hint of charcuterie behind the fruit, itself dominated by loganberry and myrtle. A quintessential GPL, a tale, therefore, of refinement and understatement; rare in a Pauillac! 93
AJ | Dark, dense black-red A vibrant and compelling aroma: fine-milled blackcurrant fruits with Cologne spice. Pristine, clean and articulate,with all of the vintage purity beautifully realised. Ditto on the palate: a driving fruit core, surging over the palate in a high tide of exuberant, grippy, seizing and commanding Pauillac Cabernet. Very pure, very honest, very generous, very true to both vintage and place ... though without much layering and intrigue. A great site sings out, for all that.Drink Dates: 2028 - 2042.
