92-94 Full of toasty flavors, this is a structured, wood and ripe fruit dominated wine. It has weight, while also feeling fresh. Great final spice and pear flavors.

Since the Bonnie family took over this property, it has improved enormously, and still represents good value. This is balanced and fresh, with aromas of eucalyptus and mint, finishing with ripe, sweet fruit.

A deliciously black currant-flavored wine, with juicy fruit, plum skins and spice over the firm tannins. Great balance already shows through; a finely poised wine.

An evocatively perfumed wine, with aromas of pine, eucalyptus and spice. To taste, it is open, generous, its tannins cushioned inside ripe, jelly black fruits. Everything mingles well, the core of dryness an essential component of the richness of the wine.

89-91 Barrel sample. A firmly tannic wine, but one that lets the intense fruit flavors peep through. It's certainly dark, but also has a pleasurable liveliness to finish.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

A powerful, ripe wine, solid tannins and rich black plum and currant fruits. The wine is very much in the Malartic-Lagravière style of rich, dense fruits layered with tannins.

Rich and smooth, polished with spice and wood, while balanced with herbaceous, ripe fruit. Hints of minerality give an extra texture to this intensely flavored wine.

While initially the fruit seems tight and stalky, there is also a rich layer of spice, black currant and balanced wood flavors. Acidity is prominent, but it fits well into the fruit. For medium-term aging.

Quite an innovation from a major Bordeaux chateau – a rosé bottled with a screw top, albeit a very smart, de luxe design. This is a vivid pink colored wine, a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, crisp, fresh, tasting of wild strawberries, a great summer wine.
