Score 89-91/100 · Drink 2006-2014, Robert Parker, Jun 2006

This elegant 500-case blend of 95% Merlot and 5% Malbec exhibits gorgeous aromatics of sweet berries intermixed with smoke, flowers, and forest floor. An attractive, medium-bodied effort with tremendous richness, texture, and concentration, it should be consumed during its first 7-8 years of life.

Score 87-89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2005

(95% merlot and 5% malbec; cropped at 22 hectoliters per hectare) Full ruby. Dark berry liqueur, minerals and mocha on the nose. Fat and lush, with flavors of blackberry, blackcurrant and minerals. Finishes with big tannins and lots of oaky torrefaction.
