Ruby red in the glass with a clean, brilliant character. The nose shows sweet red fruit, caraway seed and notes of cedar. The palate is fresh with lively acidity and a nice balance of fruitiness, fine tannin and sweet spice. Medium bodied, this wine offers a lingering, textural finish. Overall, this is a precise and approachable wine, one that I'll look forward to tasting again in 5 years.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, February 2009
This is a sexy, soft, round wine with notes of sweet red and black fruits intermixed with hints of truffle, tobacco leaf, and spice. Medium to full-bodied with sweet fruit and a savory mouthfeel in an up-front, forward style, this wine needs 2-3 years of cellaring and should drink up to 15 years or more.

Licorice, chocolate and black plums all show immediately in this rich, dense wine. Sweet tannins combine with fresh tobacco smokiness over jammy, ripe fruit. This array of flavors is kept in check by the over-arching acidity. R.V.

Raspberry and floral aromas follow through to a medium-to-full-bodied palate, with fine tannins and a chocolate, cream and cedar aftertaste. This has mellowed with time. Best after 2012. 2,080 cases made. -JS
