Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, January 2003
A brilliant effort from proprietor Stephan von Neipperg, this sleeper of the vintage is one of the Cotes de Castillonâ_Ts two or three best wines in 2002. A saturated ruby/purple color is accompanied by a big bouquet of Asian spices, earth, black currants, and incense. With loads of fruit, a touch of noticeable oak, medium to full body, and moderate tannin, it should drink well for a decade or more.

Wine Spectator, March 2005
Intense aromas of black currant, basil, minerals and a hint of fresh licorice stick. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a long minerally finish. Lacks a bit on the midpalate now. Give it time to even out. Best after 2007. 8,330 cases made. –JS
