Score 92/100 · Josh Raynolds, Mar 2014
Bright violet color. Smoky cassis and cherry-cola aromas are complicated by suggestions of bacon fat, licorice and cracked pepper: is this syrah or what? Sweet blackcurrant and cherry compote flavors display a suave mix of depth and energy, with smoked meat and floral pastille nuances adding complexity. The sappy, exotically spicy, long finish shows shows excellent clarity and lift and even tannins.
