Score 90/100 · Drink 2008-2018, Robert Parker, Apr 2003

An imposing wine with high tannin but also equally high extract and richness, the heady smorgasbord of aromas range from blackberries to cassis to cherries, vanilla, coffee, and licorice. The wine is deep, full-bodied, and powerful, with a lot of structure but also a lot of sweetness. I would not touch a bottle for at least another 5-6 years. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2018.
