Critics Ratings

'Terrific modern-style wine. Confidently rendered with blackberry, black currant and boysenberry fruit that oozes along the palate, while cocoa powder, Lapsang souchong tea, black fig and Kona coffee notes ripple through the finish. Still a bit tight, so cellar. A hair less rich but with more exotic flavors than the debut '00. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 93/100 (Feb 2004)
