Score 93+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2014

Bright medium red. Medicinal cherry, earth and chalky minerality on the nose. Juicy and very intense but youthfully imploded, with terrific energy and lift to the strawberry and floral flavors. The strawberry fruit character follows through on the saline, firmly tannic finish. Very penetrating wine with a cool-soil character.

Score 93-96/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jan 2013

(15% vendange entier): Moderately saturated medium red. Superb lift and delicacy to the nuanced aromas of red berries, rose petal, crushed stone and smoky minerals. Spicy and penetrating, communicating an intense sappiness without any impression of weight. Great medicinal reserve here to support long aging. The classy finish features perfectly buffered tannins, a lightly saline quality and outstanding subtle persistence.

Score 92-94/100 · Allen Meadows, Burghound

This is appealingly fresh if quite reserved with subtle spice and stone notes characterizing the spicy red pinot and red currant infused nose. There is a highly sophisticated mouth feel to the complex and very classy flavors that possess well-integrated fine-grained tannins before culminating in a markedly persistent finish. Tasted: Jan 14, 2013. Drink: 2023+
