Beautiful aromas of fresh berries, Spanish cedar and licorice. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins that go into high gear in the finish. Long and exciting. Better and better. One of HM’s best.--’95/’96 Bordeaux retrospective. Best after 2009.Wine Spectator | 93 WSVery good deep red. Sappy red berries, game and nutty oak on the nose; less expressive than the ’96 today. Silky and deep, with good acidity providing solid backbone. Doesn’t show quite the charm of the ’96 today, but this very firm wine really builds in the mouth. Finishes strong and long, with lush, toothcoating tannins. Showing even better than a bottle I tasted last spring just after the miseVinous Media | 90 VM
