DECANTER: "Lovely nose of sour cherry, caramel, roses and blackcurrants; so expressive. Dense and chewy fruit on the palate - this has a succulence and sweet softness which is appealing. It's lightly framed, not dense or weighty but has excellent clarity and precision: clear, linear with tension and drive. It's focused and all in one stream right now but I love the juiciness, the texture and the minerality. Will be good to see how the ageing expands the palate. A clear Pessac success in the vintage."

JAMES SUCKLING: "A tight and focused Pessac with crushed berry, cherry and some orange and lemon. Medium-bodied with firm tannins and a juicy finish."
