Wine Spectator: 96 Points
Youthfully compact, featuring a core of fig, black cherry and black currant notes that are still a bit balled up, but with enticing flashes of anise, singed alder and iron throughout. The lengthy finish shows a long sanguine echo amid the fruit. This one requires just a little patience. Best from 2024 through 2038. 900 cases made, 84 cases imported.
Vinous: 96 Points
Glass-staining violet. Powerfully scented blackberry, cherry liqueur, exotic spice and olive scents are complemented by suave floral and smoky mineral elements. Sweet, seamless and expansive on the palate, offering intense, densely packed black and blue fruit preserve, violet pastille, salty olive and black pepper flavors that deepen steadily through the back half. The juicy, finely delineated finish features gripping tannins, bright mineral cut and shows superb persistence. One-third new, large format oak barrels.
