Score 93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2013

Medium red. Inviting aromas of musky red berries, lavender and white pepper. Round, sweet and deep, offering complex, soil-driven flavors of raspberry, cranberry, smoke, spices, minerals and cocoa powder. Saline, sappy wine with a very long, subtle, rising finish and fine-grained tannins.

Score 91-94/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jan 2012

(from purchased grapes and wine): Good deep red. Currant, plum, cranberry, mocha and cocoa powder on the nose, lifted by a note of blood orange. Lush on entry, then concentrated and seamless in the mid-palate, with lovely saline complexity and mineral sap to the dark fruit flavors. Finishes with distinctly cool tannins and sneaky persistence. Like the Corton, this very primary wine may get a late bottling.
