91 Points | International Wine Cellar , July/August 2012

Good dark red.  Blackberry, licorice, leather, chocolate and a whiff of peat on the nose.  Intensely flavored, fine-grained and lively, with noteworthy energy to its dark berry and dark chocolate flavors.  A firmly built wine in a rather cool style for the year, finishing with chocolatey tannins, a lightly herbal quality and very good length.  Very well done.
