93 VM. "Bright purple. Bright and energetic on the deeply perfumed nose, displaying an array of dark fruit and floral scents that pick up smoky mineral and Indian spice accents with air. Concentrated, spice-accented blackberry and bitter cherry flavors show a vivacious character thanks to a spine of zesty acidity. In a lively style for its heft, revealing no rough edges. Finishes gently sweet and very long, with supple tannins coming in late." Vinous, Nov 2017 |
