Score 88/100 · Drink 2012-2020, Robert Parker, Feb 2012

A heady, seductive, front end-loaded wine with plenty of cedar, black cherry, lead pencil shaving and strawberry jam notes, this is a provocative, seductive, lush style of wine. It is mid-weight, medium-bodied and ideal for drinking over the next 7-8 years.

Offers blueberry, violet and mineral on the nose. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a clean, silky finish. This has lots of finesse

Score 89-91/100 · Neal Martin

Tasted at a negociant. This has a ripe, almost rustic but exuberant bouquet with red-berried fruit, plum and a touch of mulberry. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly coarse tannins, but it has very fine balance and sense of nonchalance towards the rounded, slightly savour finish. Tasted April 2010.
