92 VM. "Vivid red. High-toned, mineral-accented scents of red berries, cola and rose pastille, plus a hint of spicecake that emerges as the wine opens up. Silky, sharply focused raspberry and bitter cherry flavors show very good energy, picking up a touch of gaminess on the back half. Delivers a solid punch of flavors but comes off lithe, showing no rough edges. Finishes juicy, subtly smoky and very long, displaying lingering red fruit and succulent herb nuances and sneaky tannins." Vinous, Dec 2016 |
