Expert Reviews:
Wine Spectator, 90 points: A taut, sinewy style, with notes of
slate and white pepper to the roasted plum and dried red berry
flavors. Medium-grained tannins emerge on the snappy finish,
showing ferrous accents. Drink now through 2020.
Roger Voss
This ripe, tannic wine has a good sense of balance between
the firm structure and the potential of the rich, full-blown
fruit. Blackberry fruit shows strongly, giving a dense wine
that will still develop quickly. Drink from 2016.
