Expert Reviews

88 Points | International Wine Cellar , January 2012

(from a vineyard dating back to 1908):  Bright, deep red.  Ripe but somewhat medicinal aromas of black cherry, licorice, chocolatey oak and fresh herbs.  Lush, round and smooth if rather subdued, with a restrained sweetness to the dark cherry fruit.  Offers good richness but could use more definition and lift.  Finishes a tad dry, with dusty tannins and a repeating herbal quality.
