WS The Wine Spectator: 91 Points
This supple, medium-bodied red is dark and lightly juicy,
featuring baked blackberry, black currant, wild herb, mocha
and smoke notes that show a mineral edge. Oers zesty
ground spices and balsamic acidity that keep this lively, while
well-knit tannins firm the finish. Drink now through 2028.

WE Wine Enthusiast: 91 Points
Inky violet in the glass, this wine has a bouquet of brambly dark and red berries, olive tapenade, and mocha. Tannins come on slightly strong and then recede, revealing flavors of purple plum, cherry, saddle leather and caramel. There is a nice splash of acidity on the closing note.
JS James Suckling: 90 Points
Blackberries, blackcurrants, peppercorns, chili chocolate, vanilla and black olives on the nose. Full-bodied with firm, ripe tannins. Rich, ripe and chewy.
