81 / 100 Robert Parker
Lean and austere with vegetal characteristics, this dark ruby-colored 2008 reveals a hollow mid-palate and moderate tannins in the finish. There are some complex elements in the aromatics, but that does not follow through on the palate.

Nice cocoa and coffee aromas lead the way for roasted vanilla bean, dark plum and black cherry fruit notes. This is a touch firm, but racy and fleshy enough through the finish, where an old-school lead pencil note lingers nicely. Drink now through 2016.

17 / 20 Jancis Robinson
Round tannins and very very fresh and Figeac. Not much nose but good depth and silky texture. Great energy and balance. Polish but depth too. Very very long.
