91-93 Points | International Wine Cellar , January/February 2013

(based on roughly 50% mourvedre this year):  Inky ruby.  Powerful, expressive aromas of red- and blackcurrant, cherry and licorice, with suave anise and floral overtones.  Juicy and precise, with tangy red and dark berry flavors, supple texture and a strong mineral note on the back.  Spicy on the finish, which shows very good focus and length.  This is impressively elegant and should be drinkable on the young side.
