Score 93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2008

Good bright ruby-red. Knockout nose combines black cherry, licorice, game, smoke, violet and underbrush, but with a medicinal reserve today. Silky on entry, then large-scaled, rich and deep, with a compellingly smooth texture to its flavors of dark fruits, flowers and spices. Very primary yet already sexy and expressive. Finishes with suave, fine-grained tannins and subtle building perfume. A lovely, sappy Rugiens with a long future ahead of it.

Medium ruby-red. Cooler, reserved nose hints at black cherry and mocha. Suave on entry, then smooth, refined and laid-back in the middle. This very fine-grained wine mounts slowly and subtly, and the firmly tannic finish is very long and suave, enveloping the entire palate. Grand cru class here.
