94 VM. "Bright purple. Expansive, smoke- and spice-accented blueberry, cherry liqueur and violet aromas show excellent clarity and hints of olive and smoky bacon. Sweet and broad on the palate, offering impressively concentrated black and blue fruit and floral pastille flavors, along with exotic spice and vanilla nuances. The impressively long, penetrating finish features nervy minerally cut, an echo of juicy blue fruit and fine-grained tannins that build steadily." Vinous, Apr 2018 |
