Professional scores

"The wine shows real complexity, with a combination of bright blackberry and black cherry notes running alongside lovely scents of cassis, cocoa, woodsmoke, cedar and vanilla. The wood is notable but not obtrusive or distracting, and it firms but doesn't dry the fruit. The materials here are excellent, and the winemaking could hardly be better." 92/100, Michael Franz
"Sweet black fruits. Good depth but shows youth. Nice black fruit complexity. Good length of flavor. Ripe middle, rounded tannins." 5/5 Decanter, Best Value Wine of the Month January 2006

Press reviews

"Delicious now, with powerful dark berry fruit flavors enhanced by secondary notes that echo chocolate and coffee, this wine has the stuffing to improve with five to 10 years of bottling age. It's a special treat - this is one wine well worth the splurge." Washington Times, Wine of the Week, November 2005
"...delivered immediate hedonistic pleasure..." Jerry Shriver, USA Today, November 2005
