Critics Ratings

'The 2006 hits the palate with masses of blueberries, blackberries, flowers and spices. The 2006 is a big, explosive wine in need of considerable cellaring. That said, it is remarkably accessible for a young Taurasi from this historic property. Layers of fruit continue to build towards the exotic, concentrated finish. This is a marvelous wine in the making. The 2006 spent two years in a combination of casks and smaller French oak barrels. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2046.' - Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, 95/100 (May 2011)

'Dark and polished, with fine tannins framing the complex mix of game, cherry reduction, cassis and mineral notes. Concentrated, delivering a long finish of tangy fruit and tar. Drink now through 2030.' - Nathan Wesley, Wine Spectator, 94/100 (Oct 2013)
