On the 2005 Richebourg. "A wonderfully elegant though primary and cool nose features a superbly complex blend of red, black and blue fruit aromas as well as violets, rose petals, spice and earth notes that introduce rich, textured and powerful flavors that possess good focus, punch and vibrancy on the mouth coating, austere and strikingly long finish. This is harmonious, transparent and poised." Burghound, 2007
