Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 08
Bright, full red. Musky red fruits, minerals and licorice on the reticent but pure nose. At once cool and sweet, with terrific life to the flavors of red cherry, licorice and minerals. A wonderfully delicate and suave wine that appears to be in the process of shutting down in the bottle. Finishes with firm-edged tannins, excellent structure and superb persistence. This is built for extended aging, and will almost certainly merit a higher score a decade from now.
