The opaque purple-colored 1995 offers a moderately intense nose of jammy blackberries and currants, terrific fruit on the attack, medium to full body, outstanding purity, low acidity, and a fleshy texture. It can be drunk now as well as over the next decade. This wine is a sleeper of its vintage. This wine, fermented under tanks of cold nitrogen (at 5 degrees centigrade for 15 days), is revolutionary in its fruit intensity and richness for Haut-Medoc. Made from a blend of 50% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 20% Cabernet Franc, from a property that does not possess one of the finest terroirs, this wine continues to amaze me with its inky intensity, purity, and richness. Given the high quality of recent efforts, this property is well on its way to meriting a position alongside the likes of Sociando-Mallet.
