Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
(14% alcohol) Medium red. Aromas of red fruits, bonfire, black cardamom, clove and smoky oak. Silky, lush and moderately sweet, with a distinct minerality firming the red fruit flavors and giving the wine a tangy quality. Finishes with substantial dusty, fine tannins and late notes of cola, clove and smoky oak.
