Critic tasting note: "The nose is very and unevolved in first minutes; only minimal stimulation brought about by aeration in the forms of faint pear and wood scents. Far better in the mouth, as focused tastes of ripe grapes, old oak resin and candied nuts greet the taste buds; midpalate shows a bit of fire along with fruit, wood and spirit. Finishes sweet, balanced and fruity." - 87/100, Wine Enthusiast
