Alex Shaw, JJ Buckley, January 2010

Black currants, earth and toasty oak dominate a beautiful, expressive nose. On the palate, the wine is balanced with firm tannins that provide excellent structure and carry the dark berry fruit through to the finish. This is drinking beautifully right now, and will really shine paired with beef and heavier cuts of meat. Though the structure indicates this will continue to improve, it's most definitely ready to be enjoyed immediately.


Wine Spectator, January 2008

A fruity wine, with blackberry and currant character. Medium-bodied, with a fresh finish. . .
