A wood-aged St Laurent. It has certainly gained toast and spice, but it has lost good fresh fruit. Structure is all here at the moment, the fruit a whisper of black berries in the background.——R.V.(3/1/2010)—— 89

Bitter cherries and perfumed aromas mark this as a typical Saint Laurent wine. There are definite tannins, with power and dryness. It should age well, as shown by the layers of acidity that push all the way through from the palate to the finish.——R.V.(10/1/2006)—— 89
