95 Wine Spectator – This is rich and saturated with cherry and berry flavors, accented by iron, leather and eucalyptus notes. A dense frame of tannins and vibrant acidity provide structure, and this remains persistent through the long finish. Still tightly wound, with terrific balance and complexity. 183 cases made.
94 Wine Enthusiast – This opens with aromas of camphor, marzipan, prune and underbrush. It’s full-bodied, with flavors recalling dried cherry, orange rind, licorice and green tea framed in tightly knit, close-grained tannins that clench the finish.
