Score 90/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Mar 2007
Good full red. Red cherry and smoked meat aromas. Intense, slightly medicinal flavors of black cherry, licorice and menthol. In a distinctly fresh, spicy style, finishing with tight tannins and noteworthy aromatic persistence. I found better ripeness here than in my barrel sample a year ago, but this will need patience.

Good bright red-ruby. Purer aromas of black cherry and smoked meat. Supple and moderately sweet but with a peppery nuance. Finishes slightly dry, with good but not outstanding persistence. I get an impression of incomplete ripeness here.
