Critics Ratings
'Very dense and solid and sophisticated. Super dense and dry on the end with polish and ripe fruit.’ – Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Sep 2011)
‘Bright, medium ruby-red. Deep, oaky aromas of raspberry, cassis, mocha and graphite minerality. Chewy, savory and quite dry, with a youthfully inky quality to the pure but tightly wound dark berry and mint flavors. No creamy middle here! Tart-edged acids accentuate the wine's savory aspect. Finishes with a firm tannic spine that will require patience.’ – Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 90+/100 (Sep 2011)
