"Rich and fleshy with a dark core of interwoven fine tannins and stony minerality. Fantastic concentration and yet so suave in spite of all the power. Very long, savory finish with delicate nuances of licorice and bitter chocolate at the dark and dangerous finish. A cuvee of wines from several of the best sections of the hill. Drink or hold."

"This is pretty aromatically with its combination of plum, black cherry, game, smoke and freshly turned earth. The rich, velvet-textured and more powerful large-bodied flavors are generous to the point of opulence if perhaps less mineral-driven, all wrapped in a serious, built-to-age and robust finish that could also use better depth so patience advised."
