Notes : Robert Parker 88/100, Bettane & Desseauve 16/20, RVF 15,5/20
"A delicious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot, this château continues to surpass its humble pedigree. The 2007 reveals dense notes of black cherry and raspberry mingled with a hint of loamy soil. Round, generous and medium-bodied, with silky tannins and low acidity" (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker) .
