Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2007
(a Bordeaux blend with 6% shiraz) Bright ruby-red. Inky, slightly grapey aromas of black cherry and licorice. Sweet and strong in extract, with an almost candied, crystallized dark raspberry character leavened by bright acidity. Finishes with concentrated cherry fruit and broad, sweet tannins. Winemaker Dobrovic went up to 65% new oak due to the power of the vintage.
