Critics Ratings

'A glycerol-like texture joins licorice and menthol notes to lend this red an air of maturity, with a core of cherry and raspberry fruit. This is beautifully balanced, though the tannins will be even smoother in a few years. Fine, mineral aftertaste. Best from 2012 through 2025.' - Bruce Sanderson, WIne Spectator, 93/100 (Aug 2011)

'Deep, maturing ruby. Seductive, but developed nose of dark fruit and hints of tar. With air this becomes quite rich on the nose, and more fruit driven. Very concentrated and extracted on the palate, very modern, but with depth, and with lots of slightly drying tannins giving it a serious edge.' - Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Feb 2011)
