Score 88+/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2006

(15.1% alcohol; 40% whole-cluster fermentation) Ruby-red. Musky aromas of black cherry, blackberry, tar, pepper and game. Sweet and dense if a bit youthfully reduced, with solid, chunky fruit lifted by spice and pepper notes. Finishes with rather powerful but slightly dry tannins. I suspect this will be more harmonious by the time it's released in the spring of 2007.
