RATINGS

92Wine Spectator

...concentrated black cherry, currant, earth and tobacco flavors. The tannins are assertive, but all the elements come together on the muscular finish.

91The Wine Advocate

...dried blackberry, plum and currant. What leaves an even bigger mark on the bouquet, however, are those savory tones of spice and bitter chocolate.

91James Suckling

Brambleberries, blackberries, eucalyptus and ash show on the nose. Full body, ripe tannins, fresh acidity and a chewy finish.
