Score 91/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2007
Dark purple. Textbook syrah aromas of intense cassis, cherry pit, cracked pepper and violet, accompanied by an exotic cinnamon note. Fresh and elegant, with vibrant blueberry and raspberry flavors, silky tannins and a long, juicy finish. The spice notes (some from the 40% new oak, no doubt) linger seductively, giving this real sex appeal.
