Note : Guide Hachette 3***(Exceptional wine)
"A highly expressive 2010. Fresh fruit mixed with floral and spicy nuances make up a complex, intense bouquet where the woodiness remains discreet, a sign of totally mastered ageing. On the palate, the attack is frank and invigorating. A perfect balance of fruity freshness and woodiness, with peppery notes and a solid, elegant structure. The label doesn't lie, this wine has all the makings of a Grand". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2013)

A good Bordeaux isn't exceptional either, in my opinion.
