Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2007
Dark red. Dark cherry and cassis aromas are ripe but also energetic, thanks to a vibrant mineral topnote. Silky and sweet, with bright red berry flavors, supple tannins and a gentle baking spice tone. A smoky note arrives on the back, adding complexity to the long, expansive finish. Cabral advises drinking this on the young side.
