Score 87/100 · Drink 2003-2015, Robert Parker, Apr 2002

This wine is dark purple-colored, with an excellent nose of smoke and creme de cassis intermixed with licorice and underbrush. This straightforward offering is full-bodied, dense, deep, chewy, mouthfilling, and substantial. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2015.

Pretty tobacco, berry and mineral aromas follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with silky tannins and a fresh finish. Best after 2004. 23,330 cases made. – James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2002
