Expert Reviews

89 Points | International Wine Cellar , January 2012

Medium red-ruby.  Blueberry, blackberry, menthol and bitter chocolate on the nose.  Juicy, intense and fine-grained, with a restrained sweetness and enticing peppery lift to the flavors of dark berries, violet, licorice and game.  This reminded me in weight and flavor of a Saint-Joseph.  Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins and good savory persistence.
