RATINGS

90Robert M. Parker Jr.

The sexy second wine of this estate.. has a surprisingly saturated, ruby/plum/purple color, wonderful sweet black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, silky tannins, medium body and outstanding concentration, richness and length.

17Jancis Robinson

Intense pure dark fruit melded with restrained oak spice. Juicy but dense and lots of fine, firm tannin.
