Expert Reviews

92 Points | International Wine Cellar , March/April 2013

(aged in one-third new oak for 16 months):  Bright, saturated medium ruby.  Lively aromas of cassis, blackberry, licorice pastille and chocolatey oak.  Densely packed and chocolatey-ripe, conveying an impression of chewy extract to its dark berry and black cherry flavors.  Shows plenty of mocha and coffee oak influence but this broad, full wine avoids coming off as heavy or particularly sweet.  Finishes quite broad and chocolatey, with huge but supple tannins that coat the front teeth.
