93(+?) Points | International Wine Cellar , November/December 2012

(68% cabernet sauvignon, 23% merlot, 7% cab franc and 2% petit verdot):  Good bright ruby-red.  Very ripe aromas of black cherry, chocolate, cocoa powder and black pepper.  Broad, sweet and very ripe, with a slightly high-toned character to the plum, dark berry and dark chocolate.  A powerful yet plush wine whose huge tannins currently cut off its fruit on the back end.  This will require patience.
