This solid red shows juicy dark plum, loganberry and blackberry fruit backed by lots of sweet tobacco, iron and roasted sage. A streak of roasted cedar moves subtly through the finish. Drink now through 2015. 89 Points, The Wine Spectator (2011)
Inky ruby color. Captivating aromas of raspberry, blackcurrant, licorice and minerals are complicated by a strong smoky note. Rich, round and deep, with pure flavors of raspberry and plum. A classic Bordeaux with a broad, mouthcoating finish featuring very fine tannins and excellent length. One of the three best wines from this property in the last 15 years. 89-91 Points, Stephen Tanzer's Int'l Cellar
Composed of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon and 32% Merlot, the earthy, spicy 2008 offers up notes of underbrush, red and black fruits and subtle smoke in its medium to full-bodied, solidly tannic, structured personality. It will benefit from 3-4 years of bottle age and keep for two decades. 88 Points, The Wine Advocate (2011)
