Tasting Note
91-94 Points, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous (a blend of 69% cabernet sauvignon, 19.5% merlot and 11.5% cabernet franc) Saturated medium ruby. Pungent aromas of blackcurrant, mint and licorice. Extremely tightly wound and firm; a rather muscular, powerful Las Cases in a distinctly Pauillac style. Almost monolithic today in the middle palate. But pure and classically proportioned, with serious tannins that reach the front teeth. This very backward wine will need a good 12 to 15 years to blossom in bottle.Review Date: 01 May 02
