94pts Vinous

Deep ruby. Pungent, spice-accented scents of black and blue fruits, licorice, violet and smoky minerals. Juicy and well-concentrated, offering intense blackberry, cherry and bitter chocolate flavors that become spicier with air. Finishes smooth and impressively long with repeating blue fruit character and harmonious tannins that add shape and gentle grip.

Winemaker Notes

Expressive savory berries and spice. Aromas of blackberry and blueberry with hints of licorice and dark chocolate. The palate is an elegant expression of dark fruit with concentrated layers of berry, earthy savoriness and smoked meat flavors. Long and intense with excellent texture and a balanced tannin structure.
