"Clear, full crimson; the bouquet and palate alike have a special richness, DRC Richebourg compared to the Reserve's La Tache; fruit, tannins and oak are welded together in an exultant wave on the bouquet, and a seamless stream on the very long palate, its finish and aftertaste of rarely encountered quality. 98 Points/Drink to 2032.
