92 Points - Wine Spectator

Cooked berry aromas are complemented by light cream, tobacco and cedar notes. Full-bodied with substantial yet well-integrated tannins, the wine delivers impressive structure and a chewy, persistent finish. Still requiring additional bottle age, this is a serious and classically styled Haut-Brion with excellent aging potential.
