Wine Advocate #164 (4/2006) Rating: 90 points Drink: 2006-2016
This 2003 offers both complexity and pleasure. Already sensual and evolved, it reveals soft, sexy notes of plums, figs, black currants, pain grille, and earth. Although full-bodied, opulent, pure, and rich, it appears to be on a fast evolutionary track, so consumption over the next decade is recommended. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (3/31/2006) Score: 89
Round and velvety with lots of berry and cherry character and toasted oak. Full-bodied, with lovely texture and a medium finish. A tiny bit more on the finish would push it to outstanding. Yummy wine. Best after 2008. 14,165 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating：
Expansive, inviting, perfumed. Complex and integrated. Rewarding, full, ripe palate with forward fruit and smooth tannins. Drink 2008-14. |
