Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2010
Vivid ruby. Smoky dark fruits and dried flowers on the nose. Juicy, focused blackberry and dark cherry flavors are framed by silky tannins and lifted by sneaky minerality. Rich and fresh at once, with good finishing grip and lingering spiciness. This benefits from some aeration and will be very flexible at the table.

Score 88/100 · Drink 2009-2013, Robert Parker, Aug 2009
The 2007 The Prospector reveals surprising elegance considering it is nearly 100% Mourvedre along with sweet blueberry and cassis intermixed with hints of underbrush and forest floor. Medium-bodied and well-made with silky tannins as well as a very good finish, it should evolve for 3-4 years. Tel. (510) 868-9174
