"Good ruby-red. Crushed blackberry, raspberry, mocha and menthol on the nose, with a suggestion of superripeness. Silky, juicy and sweet, offering a rare combination of sheer sucrosite and inner-mouth lift; terrific dark fruit intensity here . . . . Finishes with ripe, granular tannins, a note of licorice and lingering sweetness." Vinous, Mar 2012 |
