Burghound, January 2011

30% whole clusters. Notes of plum and violets precede rich and full-bodied flavors that are concentrated, beautifully textured but quite serious, all wrapped in a firm, ripe and strikingly long finish. A classic Les St. Georges that possesses very fine tannins and an austere finish that will require an ample amount of time to flesh out and fully mature.

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, April 2010

Bright, full red. Very ripe and complex if reduced nose offers cherry liqueur, game, leather, minerals and brown spices. Sweet, suave and deep, with superb balance of acidity and ripeness giving verve to the middle palate. The wild meaty character carries through the wine and is joined by mineral and leather notes on the firmly tannic finish, which really spreads out to saturate the palate. Very sexy and classic Les Saint-Georges, offering the best balance to this point between sugar and skin ripeness.
