"Moderately saturated medium red. Superb lift and delicacy to the nuanced aromas of red berries, rose petal, crushed stone and smoky minerals. Spicy and penetrating, communicating an intense sappiness without any impression of weight. Great medicinal reserve here to support long aging. The classy finish features perfectly buffered tannins, a lightly saline quality and outstanding subtle persistence."
92-94 Allen Meadows - Burghound
"This is appealingly fresh if quite reserved with subtle spice and stone notes characterizing the spicy red pinot and red currant infused nose. There is a highly sophisticated mouth feel to the complex and very classy flavors that possess well-integrated fine-grained tannins before culminating in a markedly persistent finish."
