91-94/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous
Good full red. Complex, expressive, soil-driven nose offers raspberry, cocoa powder, spices and flinty minerality. Sappy and sweet in the mouth, with a penetrating quality to the flavors of red berries, flowers and spices. Here the 100% oak adds sex appeal without overwhelming the wine. Finishes very long, with suave tannins providing solid structural support.
