94 points from the Wine Enthusiast: "Beautiful now, with decanting, due to the generous
fruit flavors and the way the oak shows them off. Dry and smooth, it brims with blackberry,
cherry, red and black currant, blueberry, cocoa, anise and sandalwood and smoky flavors
that go on and on. Should age, too. Mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and Petit Verdot.
Now-2014." (12/09) According to Wine Spectator: "Tight, structured and full-bodied, with
firm, ripe dried currant, blackberry, mineral, anise and sage flavors that have a touch of
black licorice before ending with loamy, earthy tannins. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and
Petit Verdot. Best from 2011 through 2017. " (11/09) Decant this wine and it will reward
your palate with dark black cherry fruit, spicy cedar notes, lead pencil aromas and a firm
tannic backbone that will hold up well with a grilled meat dish. The wine shows lots of
structure, acidity and tannin to hold up well over the next several years in a cellar.
