96 FM "Deep ruby garnet, firm core, delicate lightening at edge; fine nose of cassis confit, delicate dried fruit flavors; enormously powerful fruit sweetness behind massive tannins but exhibits good cut, pure cassis and delicately peppery in the finish, enormously attractive. A bomb of a wine with a bright future. Probably the best wine of the tasting. 94 WS "An enormously complex and sophisticated wine that combines great flavors with uncommon finesse. Dark, sleek, rich and polished, with a delicious core of concentrated cola, currant, plum and blackberry. Tremendous finish."
