"Wonderful purity of fruit with blackberries and flowers, such as violets and orchids. Medium to full-bodied with very fine tannins that melt nicely into the wine. Very drinkable now, but a couple of years of bottle age will make it even better. "
- 94 Points, James Suckling
"A ripe, concentrated but well-proportioned red, with rich tiers of berry and açai joining violet and five-spice accents around mineral-tinged tannins. Reveals notes of dark chocolate and molasses."
