Price $115

From one of the few Saint-Julien properties that are not cru classé, this nevertheless shows all the class of the appellation. It has ripe black-currant and berry flavors, laced with acidity and dry, dense tannins. Its richness is still developing. This has considerable aging potential. — R.V. (2/1/2013)
