Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2006
Bright, deep ruby. Primary, almost grapey dark fruit aromas complicated by smoked meat, pepper and chocolate. Juicy and peppery but ripe, with slightly herbal but nicely concentrated flavors. The very primary character follows through in the mouth. Like the cabernet, this wine is not yet expansive and needs some further bottle aging. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins.
