Score 86/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Red-ruby. Cherry, apple skin and toasty, vanillin oak on the nose. Juicy, supple, moderately fleshy flavors of currant and plum show attractive sweetness and freshness. Fairly persistent finish features dusty tannins, high-toned oak and an herbaceous dill element.
