"Opaque ruby. Powerfully scented nose offers a suave bouquet of boysenberry, candied blackberry and smoky herbs. Broad and concentrated, with deep dark berry flavors of liqueur-like richness and texture. Subtle minerality adds energy and keeps this wine from going over the cliff of richness. Finishes with impressive cling and length, echoing the boysenberry note. This will need rich food. 91 points."
Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (09/08)
