94 AM. "This just exudes breed even with its colossal nose of limestone, oak spice and cornucopia of flower aromas, especially dried rose petal followed by powerful, ultra rich, thick, palate staining flavors that are remarkably detailed for such a massively constituted wine. This has a palate impression of a red wine with its tannic structure yet it avoids any sense of heaviness or undue weight. Because it's so rich, it can be enjoyed now but this is clearly a wine that is still improving. Consistent notes . . ." Burghound.com, Jul 15, 2005 |
