Winemaker Notes
Ruby red in color with a dense purple hue.
Licorice and cassis dominate the aromas but there are delicate hints of mint, coffee and vanilla.
Smooth and round in the palate this wine has density with elegance, power and grace. Long finish with balanced acidity.

Wine Enthusiast
A brilliant Bordeaux blend, just captivating for its lush fruit, elegance and classy balance. Remarkable for the integrity of tannins, so sturdy and refined, so pure and sweet. A feminine wine, to judge by its soft allure, and yet packed with power and integrity. Beautiful now, although it's easily one for the next five to seven years. A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.

Wine Spectator
A stylish Bordeaux style blend that works on finesse and polish at the expense of power and thrust, resulting in a refined, complex, detailed wine of considerable flavor and dimension, ending with a smooth, soothing aftertaste. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2012 through 2023.
