It is a fabulously great wine, with supple, well integrated tannin, decent acidity, and a skyscraper like mouthfeel, with extraordinary purity and richness. This is an amazing wine to drink over the next 50 years, although I would probably suggest cellaring for five or more at present. Robert Parker, 100 pts
