Critics Ratings

'Terrific wine, with pure, modern plum, blackberry and boysenberry fruit up front being driven by freshly roasted coffee bean, Valrhona chocolate, sweet earth and smoke notes that explode on the back end. Like a new wave Côte-Rôtie, this is silky smooth, with a great combination of powerful fruit and elegant structure.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 94/100 (May 2004)

'Rich, intense nose is very modern with spicy oak evident. The palate is full, spicy and rich. Very intense with lots of oak and good acid. Very good' - Jamie Goode, Wineanorak.com
