Critical Acclaim
95 points Wine Spectator
*#11 on Top 100 of 2007, Highly Recommended*
Plush and harmonious, this red is alluring yet subtle, with intense flavors backed by an impressive structure. Look for black currant, cocoa, cigar box and mineral notes now, and expect further complexity as this evolves.(TM)

Loaded with spicy fruit with great depth and concentration, impeccable balance, and a lengthy, pure finish. (JM)
95 points Stephen Tanzer’s Internation Wine Cellar
Saturated ruby. Exotically perfumed, syrah-like bouquet of red and dark berries, violet, smoky bacon and graphite, with a vanillin oak spice undertone adding an exotic touch. Fleshy, palate-staining cassis and bitter cherry flavors are brightened by piquant minerality and firmed by fine-grained tannins. Cracked pepper and mace qualities come up on the long, silky finish. Extremely suave and strikingly complex wine with excellent balance. (JR)
