Wine Advocate-Parker :
Part of the empire of Bernard Magrez, this blend of 61% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc is a sleeper of the vintage in 2012. Its excellent dense ruby/purple color, sweet cassis, black cherry fruit, supple tannins, medium to full body and attractive, long finish make for an impressive wine that should drink nicely for 10-15 years. It's already accessible. This is another wine that performed dramatically better from the bottle than from barrel tastings.
Parker : 90 / 100
J. Robinson : 16,5 / 20
