92 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2010
($55) Expressive aromas of red berry preserves, potpourri, woodsmoke and minerals. Broad and fleshy on entry, gaining energy with air and showing lively strawberry and cherry flavors and a deeper note of licorice. The floral quality returns on the finish, which is spicy, precise and impressively persistent.
