Wine With Bok - 9.75/10 Stars
X FACTOR
I just had this bottle last week, and today a good friend served me this again. I nailed the label by just a whiff, and also nailed the vintage after some navigation. It was totally different from last week’s bottle. I was told my friend decanted this bottle for 2 hours . Not only it didn’t go flat, it was holding up extremely well. The most important X factor for this bottle was the provenance — direct from the chateau! Amazing black cherries fruit in the palate’s center, full-bodied with velvety tannins.(1/2018)
Wine Spectator - 94 Points
This is so decadent and exciting on the nose, with very ripe fruit, tobacco, meat and cedar. Full-bodied, offering amazing raspberry fruit in the core of the palate. Ultrapolished, velvety tannins wonderfully coat every inch of your palate. This will age for years ahead, but it's so lovely now. Much better than many people think. *Ranked #14 Top 100 Wines of 1992* (5/2010)
