Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate

(Ed 1998)One of the all-time popular wines of the chateau, this wine has been drinking beautifully since 1970, and continues to be delightful. It indicates just how long a top-class Bordeaux can remain at its apogee. However, the regular bottle size seems to be losing some of the exuberant, unabashed, gutsy fruitiness. Cedary and black currant aromas still prevail, and this wine still has a wonderful, silky voluptuousness that has made it so pleasurable.
