Wine Spectator: 91 Points
Intense aromas of crushed blackberries licorice and Spanish cedar. Full-bodied concentrated and structured. Give it some time.--'95/'96 Bordeaux retrospective.
Vinous: 90+ Points
Ruby-red with a pale rim. Initially closed nose opens slowly with aeration to offer delicate blackcurrant and mineral aromas complicated by a touch of field herbs. Then richer and deeper on the palate with flinty blackcurrant raspberry and herbal flavors carrying nicely through the aftertaste. The chewy peppery tannins have smoothed out nicely with age. This wine has already developed much more depth and complexity than it showed on release; should it continue to evolve positively it may yet turn out to be amemorable Gruaud.
