V 95-96 “Primary dark berry and cherry pit aromas are complemented by suggestions of incense, candied flowers and exotic spices, along with emerging cracked pepper and cola nuances. Deeply concentrated blueberry, bitter cherry and violet pastille flavors slowly turn sweeter as the wine opens up. Shows outstanding energy and mineral lift on an extremely long, finely etched finish that features chewy tannins and repeating blue fruit and floral character.” www.vinous.com
