Score 90-93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
Deep ruby color. High-pitched, youthfully unevolved aromas of black cherry, dark berries and spice. Sweet and thick, even voluptuous, in the mouth; gives an impression of lower acidity yet this is still quite backward. Tannins are ripe and sweet. A terrific early showing for this wine, and remarkably lush for the vintage.
