93 Points - Wine Spectator

“This is saturated with silky-textured cassis, blackberry and plum fruit, while additional notes of lavender, iron and sweet tapenade fill in the background. Powerful, but fresh and superlong. A great, pure rendering of terroir.” (JM) Review Date: 10/2009

“On the nose, the wine displays plenty of ripe, licorice infused dark fruit, saddle leather and garrigue aromas. These carry over onto the full bodied palate marked by a fat, mouth filling texture as well as ripe, rustic tannins on the finish.” (JD) Review Date: 02/2010
