94+ ST "Good bright, full red. Pungent aromas of spices, sassafras and tea leaf suggest a strong stem influence, not to mention new oak. Supple, sweet and mysterious; very ripe, round and full but with no excess weight. Highly complex, soil-driven flavors of cola, pepper, Provencal herbs and black olive. Finishes very long and vibrant, with subtle rising perfume and a powerful impression of terroir."
