What the critics say...
Robert Parker: 91 points(01/01/2011)
"Displays an inviting perfume of cedar, Asian spices, a hint of balsamic, licorice and assorted black fruits. This is followed by a sweetly-fruited, well-proportioned wine with a friendly personality. It is approachable now but is likely to evolve for another 2-3 years. Drink this outstanding value from 2013 to 2020."
Peñin Guide: 90 points(01/01/2011)
"Cherry red colour, crimson rim. Scents of fresh fruit and fine cocoa. On palate, fleshy, tasty, powerful, full-bodied, spirituous."
Pairing: Beef, Game Animals, Grilled Red Meats, Roasts, Stews.
