This is a modern-styled St.-Emilion with copious quantities of smoky, toasty oak, ripe, fleshy, earthy, black cherry and cassis characteristics, and plenty of pain grille (toast) notes. The wine exhibits excellent ripeness, purity, and more flesh and length than it did last year. Drink it over the next decade. April 2002
