Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, April 2009
A beautiful deep purple color as well as sweet aromas of incense, charcoal, black fruits, and a hint of black truffles are found in this deep, medium to full-bodied 2008. With pure fruit, good acids, and finely grained, ripe, well-integrated tannins, this impressively endowed, yet unevolved offering may compete with La Gaffeliereâ_Ts fabulous 2005, and should age for 20-25 years.

This has a nicely wound core of cherry sauce, plum and black- berry fruit, wrapped with melted licorice, sweet spice and a flash of black tea. Pure, ripe fruit takes a nice encore on the fresh finish. Drink now through 2014.-J.M.
