Another treasure of aged Bordeaux. This extremely well-situated Cru Bourgeois, near Haut-Marbuzet, made a classically robust St. Estèphe in the fine Médoc vintage of 2006, with a touch of cedary class to its potent nose. In the midst of its secondary stage of development, it should soften and improve for many years yet, though it is a compelling proposition for a restaurant list right now. 20% of the barriques are renewed each year, and the estate eschews all use of pesticides.
