Robert Parker (88)

Bon Pasteur's 1996 is lighter than I thought from cask, which kept my score more conservative. It exhibits spicy new oak, medium body, abundant smoky, black cherry and mocha-tinged fruit, good weight, excellent purity, and a firm, structured, muscular finish.

Winespectator (88)

Aromas of cherries, mushrooms and some oak. Medium-bodied, with slightly drying tannins but some pretty berry and toasted oak on the finish. A bit lean, but very good.
