"A background application of toasty oak frames an airy, pure and markedly ripe nose of beautifully well-layered dark berry fruit and plum where additional breadth is present in the form of dried flowers, spice and earth accents. The seductively textured, intense and muscular big-bodied flavors possess ripe tannins and plenty of dry extract, all wrapped in a balanced, lingering and energetic finish that is a bit less youthfully austere than usual. 93 Points/Drink 2027+" - Allen Meadows, Burghound
"Deep, bright red. Inviting aromas of red and black cherry, licorice, minerals, flowers and sexy herbs. Very ripe and lush, but also sappy, fine-grained and elegant, showing terrific concentration and saline minerality in the middle palate. Finishes very long, with thoroughly ripe tannins, an exotic suggestion of chocolate and plenty of mineral energy. 90-93 Points." - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous Media
