93 Points | International Wine Cellar , September/October 2010

($75; a blend of 55% cabernet sauvignon, 25% merlot and 20% cabernet franc) Good deep ruby. Initially sullen nose opens with air to show deep, superripe aromas of red cherry, cassis, tobacco leaf and licorice. Dense, fine-grained and suave, displaying good definition to the herbal red and black fruit flavors and a seamless, spherical texture to the tannins. But for a slight herbal austerity on the long finish, this would have rated an even higher score.
