Score 90/100 · James Suckling, Aug 2012

A wine with firm and velvety tannins and a citrus undertone. Full and juicy but a little tart and chewy. Give it two to three years. Best in 2014. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.

Score 90/100 · Drink 2011-2019, Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, Dec 2009

The 2007 The Galvo Garage is a blend of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 21% Petit Verdot, and 6% Cabernet Franc aged for 12 months in a mix of new and seasoned French oak. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it displays aromas of spice box, violets, pencil lead, and black currant. Medium to full-bodied and structured on the palate, this concentrated effort will evolve for 2-3 years and drink well from 2011 to 2019. The d’Arenberg portfolio is loaded with values. The winery works with over 140 growers to fashion their superb blends. For the 2008 vintage, the entry-level The Stump Jump series has been expanded.
