Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Saturated bright deep ruby. Initially reticent nose opened to reveal dark berries, bitter chocolate and game. Fat, fruity and pliant, but less focused than the Bin 707. Bright flavors of dark berries. Finishes with good length, but today the wine acids and tannins have not yet harmonized.
