92 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2009

($64; 35% garnacha, 30% each of syrah and cabernet sauvignon, and 5% merlot) Deep, vibrant ruby. Expansive, seductively perfumed aromas of black raspberry, cherry-cola, smoky minerals and spicecake. The red fruit qualities repeat on the palate, which also offers sexy spice and candied flower notes and well-integrated tannins. The finish features darker berry flavors and lingers with excellent clarity and pronounced spiciness. (The Artisan Collection, New York, NY)
