Wine Spectator:
"A silky and fruity wine with currants and spices. Medium body, fine tannins. Very good indeed."
Critical Acclaim:
"A big, firm and hard wine, with solid fruits, layers of dry tannin and great power. There's an intensity to this wine with acidity adding to the complexity and structure." (06/06)
