91-94 AM. "A subtle touch of wood spice frames the ripe and moderately earthy, superbly complex and mostly upper register red, blue and black pinot fruit as well as subtle floral aromas that give way to rich, sweet and impressively concentrated medium-full flavors that really stain and coat the palate on the explosive finish. There is excellent phenolic ripeness as well as outstanding finishing precision, all wrapped in a finale that is firm but not strict." Burghound.com, Jan 01, 2009 |
