| Review: | 90 points, Wine Advocate, August 2010: "Medium purple-colored...it displays an alluring perfume of smoke, herbs, incense, cassis, and black cherry leading to a wine with excellent volume, a smooth texture, and savory flavors. It is likely to evolve for 2-3 years but can be enjoyed now and over the next 8-10." | |
