Critics Ratings
‘Lovely expression of black cherries, earth and violets in this supple, moderately concentrated red, whose acidity and tannins are muscular. Good, lingering aftertaste.’ - Wine Spectator
'Somewhat rustic, musky aromas of dark cherry, crushed rock, spices, licorice, mocha, menthol and herbs. Juicy but a bit lean, with its distinctly saline, medicinal dark fruit and menthol flavors showing good intensity and life, if in the often ungiving style of the vintage. The substantial granular tannins arrive early, turning dusty and slightly dry. Boasts good palate presence but I wanted more texture and sweetness.' - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous(Dec 2018)
