The flagship example of high-class generic Bordeaux that is impeccably well-made by a driven proprietor, this blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon was fashioned from meager yields of 26 hectoliters per hectare. It enjoys such state-of-the-art winemaking techniques as malolactic in barrel, microbullage, and no fining or filtration. A dense ruby/purple color is followed by sweet aromas of black currants, espresso roast, chocolate, and new oak. Textured and medium-bodied, with excellent purity as well as a long, concentrated, expansive mid-palate and finish, this elegant, pure 2001 is best drunk over the next 7-8 years.

Hints at weediness on the nose, with otherwise well-ripened cassis joining with notes of caramel and graham crackers. Rather earthy and tobacco-driven on the palate, finishing with soft, relatively modest tannins. Drink now-2015.——J.C.(6/6/2005)—— 88
