89-92 ST. "Good red-ruby. Spicy blackberry and tar on the nose, lifted by a floral topnote. Lush in texture but brooding and uncompromisingly dry, with distinctly dark fruit flavors of blackberry, plum and boysenberry complicated by minerals and leather. There's a ripe chocolatey quality here but also very good energy." Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, May/Jun 08 |
