91 FM "Medium ruby-garnet, ocher at the rim. Intense wood spice, sweet dark berry fruit, candied orange zest. Sweet, powerful, prominent, well integrated tannins, juicy with good length, an extract-rich sweetish finish, some dark chocolate in the finish - would prove especially harmonious with food." 90 ST "Full red-ruby. Crystallized redcurrant, licorice, shoe polish, smoky oak and menthol on the nose. Dense, lush and sweet, but ultimately a Dominus of moderate size and scale. Fruit-driven flavors of redcurrant, black cherry and tobacco, with a hint of fresh herbs. Finishes with firm but fine tannins and a slight medicinal austerity. A stylish, rather Pauillac-like wine with lovely clarity of flavor."
