Score 94-96/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jan 2018
(13.4% alcohol): Bright ruby-red. Knockout, spectacularly lifted aromas of black raspberry, cocoa powder, cappuccino, rose petal and white chocolate. Wonderfully sweet, dense and seamless, with excellent delineation to its flavors of dark berries, spices, earth and dark chocolate. Finishes with subtly building dark raspberry fruit, the plush tannins reaching the front teeth. This wine made me shiver. Saouma has only two barrels of this elixir and may bottle the wine in magnums.
