Expert Reviews

93 Points | International Wine Cellar , May/June 2011

($95; 84% cabernet sauvignon, 8% carmenere, 5% syrah and 3% petit verdot) Inky ruby. Expansive, assertive scents of blackberry, cherry-cola, smoky herbs and licorice. Stains the palate with dark berry, cherry and bitter chocolate flavors, with zesty minerality adding precision. Tannins build with air and add grip to the impressively long, chewy finish. With aeration more sweetness and depth arrive, with no loss of vivacity. Very impressive and balanced for cellaring.
