With its concentrated fruit and weight, this is a wine that, as its name suggests, brings Tannat to its intense apogee. The wine is a blockbuster; with its power and density, it is on the edge of being too much. — (6/1/2012) —88

Densely textured, this pure Tannat lives up to the name Plenitude (generous or full). It is characterized by dark plum and licorice flavor, very tannic with ripe fruit to match. Concentrated, with a mineral edge, it just misses the mark because of a rustic edge.——R.V.(12/15/2010)—— 88

A powerful expression of Tannat. In the Madiran region, 2004 was a bigger vintage than in Bordeaux to the north, and this shows in the rich structure, dark tannins and spiced black fruits. It is rich enough to drink now, but the acidity, the wood and the power all point to aging over 4–10 years. Worth decanting.——R.V.(11/15/2008)—— 89

All the power of a Tannat wine is here, but the tannins are just about kept in check, with the fruit strong and forward. Great flavors of red currants are put alongside a layer of dry fruits, dark tannins and a sense of repressed power. Ready to drink now.——R.V.(11/15/2008)—— 87
