Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 2001

Bottled in April, 2000, this elegant, stylish, graceful wine is an attractive, dark ruby/purple-colored effort with subtle notes of sweet oak, licorice, herbs, and black fruits. While not massive, it is medium-bodied and ripe, with sweet tannin...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, June 1999

Saturated ruby-purple color. Very fine, perfumed aromas of black fruits, violet and licorice; on the nose, this has the class of a Medoc first growth. Lively and chocolatey in the mouth, with sound acidity giving the flavors good delineation; shows a floral freshness. Very good but not outstanding density and concentration. Finishes with fine tannins, good grip and noteworthy length. Doesn't quite deliver what the nose promises, but should make a stylish drink. 89-91 points

Stephen Tanzer's IWC, June 2001

Red-ruby. Currant, black olive, minerals and currant leaf on the nose. Bright, pure and focused, with aromatic inner-mouth flavors of cedar and lead pencil. Austere but not dry. More fruity and less tannic than the '96, but of roughly similar weight. Finishes firmly tannic, with sneaky persistence. 90(+?) points
