96pts(WS) Pure, rich and concentrated, this bold, graceful wine offers a deep
core of earthy currant, blackberry and plum, with hints of herb, mocha
and black licorice, giving it uncommon complexity and depth. Ends with
firm tannins and a long, persistent finish. Best from 2010 through
2017. 10,300 cases made. James Laube Oct. 15,2009
