Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2008 Scrio (Syrah) wraps around the palate with layers of rich, dark fruit. This is a decidedly cool Scrio that stands apart from some of the more bombastic wines of recen...

Burghound: Moderate wood frames fresh red and dark berry fruit that carries ample Gevrey-style earth and underbrush influence, both of which continue onto the robust, fresh and admirably...

Burghound: Noticeable but not really intrusive wood presently fights a bit with the otherwise fresh and well-layered aromas of plum and cassis. There is by contrast a real sense of under...

Burghound: Here the wood is not subtle though it does not dominate the distinctly sauvage red currant and dark berry fruit aromas trimmed in earth and briar notes that are also reflected...

Burghound: Visible but reasonably well-integrated wood sets off cool and airy red berry fruit aromas that carry both earth and sauvage undertones, both of which can also be found on the ...

Burghound: This has almost completely integrated what was relatively generous wood and now the attractively elegant nose displays lovely and fresh red berry fruit and pungent earth aroma...

Burghound: This is also quite aromatically refined with a high-toned mix of red currant and blue pinot fruit that merges into minerally, intense and attractively complex flavors that are...

Burghound: This is much more elegant and more complex as well with a lightly spiced red pinot fruit and earth-suffused nose that complements the silky-textured middle weight flavors that...

Wine Spectator: A deftly balanced Chardonnay of tremendous depth without much weight, floating its pear, quince, floral and orange marmalade flavors through to the end. It's the finish that m...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 CV is a wine that can seem remarkable and impressive at times, often as good (or notably better) as anything the winery has produced. I still found it a bit underwhel...

Wine Spectator: A deep-pile, plush carpet of a Cabernet, from Washington, this is smooth and velvety, with layer upon layer of juicy blackberry, prune, plum, spice and vanilla flavors that li...

Wine Spectator: Ripe and supple, this spicy mouthful of black cherry, plum and tar flavors remains smooth and elegant through the harmonious finish, which is wrapped in a layer of spiciness. ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright deep ruby. Sappy, sweet aromas of crystallized black cherry, cassis, mocha and mint. Dense and firmly built, with sharply delineated cherry and black raspberry flavors ...

Wine Spectator: Firm and focused, a jazzy mouthful of spicy blackberry, black pepper and violet flavors that harmonize nicely on the graceful finish. Approachable now, but can age. Best after...

Wine Spectator: Shows real presence and depth, offering a vibrant package of red berry, cherry and black currant, with hints of licorice and herbs as the finish lingers impressively. Cellarin...

Wine Spectator: Beautiful wine with wonderful subtlety and finesse. Complex aromas and flavors of tobacco, plum and berries, full bodied yet reserved and silky. Drink or hold.--The Bordeaux 5...

Wine Spectator: A mouthful for the vintage, with its lovely berry, chocolate and tobacco aromas and flavors, medium to full body and chewy tannins. Fresh finish. Better in 1999.

Wine Spectator: Very attractive blackberry and vanilla aromas follow through to a full-bodied palate, with chewy tannins and a medium finish...
