From the early summer until the end of the crop, a truly great vintage. The wine already shows its distinctive characteristics: power, depth, complexity, but also dedicacy, subtlety and harmony. With its concentrated structure, 1995 recalls the 1986, while its elegance and charm remind us of the 1990. Perhaps a ... more

The colour has amber tinges and is just beginning to show its age. The nose is also showing some development with hints of candied orange, plums, and dried apricot. The wine starts out extremely soft on the palate. Its roundness is balanced by good acidity and a slight, but very ... more

The season ended with some sweltering afternoons in the second week of September, but they were short in ... more

James Suckling
I rate wines using the 100-points scale. I have used this point system for close to 25 years. I still believe it is the simplest way to rate a wine, with its origins from grade school in the United States. A wine that I rate 90 points or more is outstanding (A), and worth buying. If I rate a wine 95 points or more (A+), it is a must buy.
