Critics Ratings

'While there is a hint of reduction present on the otherwise spicy and somber red berry fruit-suffused nose, there is only a hint of herbal tea and certainly none of the reviled 'green meanie' character. I like the intensity and detail to the delicious middle weight flavors that retain a fine sense of precision along with plenty of minerality on the lingering and well-balanced finale. What is missing, at least at present, relative to my original review is that this has not developed the level of depth that it usually does after 12 years of age. Granted this example is in magnum and thus still young and to that end I would suggest holding this at least another 8 to 10 years. In short, this is a very good 2004 but it's not at its usual level. Tasted twice in the last year from large format with consistent results' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 92/100 (Jul 2017)
