89-91 ST.
"Good full red. Aromas of candied raspberry, kirsch, roast coffee, and pungent woodsmoke. Then quite suave in the mouth, with claret-like flavors of plum, cherry, cedar, smoke and leather. Just enough acidity to maintain its shape and balance. Finishes with substantial but fine tannins and sneaky length." Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.com, Feb 2000 |
