Reviews and Accolades

97 Points/James Suckling
Loads of blackberries and blackcurrants with graphite. Some orange peel and floral essence, too. Full body, dusty and pretty tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Juicy center palate. Flavorful, yet dialed-in at the end. Slightly austere, focused finish.
Barrel Sample: 96-97

93 Points/Wine Spectator
A ripe, polished style, with currant, plum and blackberry preserves lined with mocha-accented toast, sweet tobacco and melted licorice. Stays reserved in feel overall and relies a bit on the toast, but there's ample fruit in reserve.

91 Points/Wine Enthusiast
Sweet-seeming oak aromas of vanilla and chocolate lead to broad, generous berries and dark plums on the palate of this full-bodied, softly tannic wine. It’s big but gentle, and easy to appreciate.
