Score 94/100 · Drink 2007-2022, Pierre Rovani, Apr 2006

The candied black cherry-scented 2003 Ciel du Cheval Vineyard is fashioned from 42% Merlot, 36% Cabernet Franc, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Petit Verdot. A seductive, lush, medium to full-bodied effort, its satin-textured core is generously filled with red cherries, raspberries, and blackberries. This wine’s supple finish, which reveals additional bursts of sweet, pure red fruits and exquisitely ripened tannin, is admirably long. Projected maturity: 2007-2022. Tel. (206) 463-9227; www.andrewwill.com

Score 90/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2005

(42% merlot, 36% cabernet franc, 16% cabernet sauvignon and 6% petit verdot) Good full medium ruby. Very ripe aromas of black raspberry, licorice and oak. Quite primary and sweet in the mouth, with flavors of cassis, blueberry, licorice and dark chocolate complemented by sexy oak tones. As young as this is, it already shows a rather suave texture. Finishes with building, tongue-dusting tannins.
