Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2013
(14.5% alcohol): Good dark red. Aromas of black cherry, currant, plum, loam, chocolate, mint and graphite. Supple and fine-grained, with enticing currant, spice, menthol and mint flavors framed and lifted by harmonious acidity. Round, pliant merlot with moderate complexity but attractive balance and a seamless texture. The sweet finish shows some slightly gritty chocolatey tannins.
