JAMES SUCKLING 94 POINTS - "You feel the oak here, suggesting vanilla and clove character, but it’s very well complemented by the dark fruit, ranging from blackberries to mulberries to dark cherries. Full-bodied, dense and decadent with a regal structure and muscular tannin backbone. The acidity cuts nicely through on the long finish and provides freshness."

WINE SPCTATOR 94 POINTS - "This has mellowed nicely, featuring ripe cherry, plum, iron, spice, eucalyptus and stony mineral flavors. Vibrant, with a dense matrix of refined tannins, balance and a resonant finish. Long and mouthwatering, this red looks set for the long haul. Drink now through 2042." - 08/2024
