Expert review:
93 Points - Wine Spectator Magazine (2007 vintage):
“Elegantly wrought, with strawberry, raspberry and floral aromas and flavors permeating the gossamer texture. This is pure and long, with a firm base of tannins, bright acidity and a lingering aftertaste of berry, spice and mineral. Best from 2012 through 2024. 175 cases made." –BS (2010)
