Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Full red. Deep, youthfully reticent aromas of red fruits and cocoa powder. Richer and deeper than the 2008 but much less expressive today and a bit more angular. Surprising...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The estate's 2007 Scrio (Syrah) is simply breathtaking. This rich, opulent red caresses the palate seamlessly with masses of dark fruit in a large-scaled expression of Syrah. ...

James Suckling: A wine that makes you happy, with strawberry, plums and citrus under tones. Full and velvety, with lovely ripe tannins and lively acidity. Better in 2013.
