Wine Spectator  

Bright and perfumed aromas of plum, lilac and toast. Full-bodied, with layers of ultrafine tannins and a long, caressing finish. Cashmere. Beautiful. Best after 2012. 2,000 cases made. –JS

Wine Advocate  

Tasting more like a Grenache-based wine than one dominated by Merlot, the 2004 offers up sweet, pure notes of kirsch along with crisp acidity in a medium-bodied, somewhat superficial format. Magdelaine is generally a lighter-styled claret, and the dark ruby-hued 2004 should be drunk during its first decade of life.

A hugely rich, concentrated wine for 2004, packed with ripe black plums and berries. This is a great success, with dry tannins balanced by delicious sweet fruit, finishing with a fresh, currant fruit aftertaste. —Roger Voss,
