Tasting Note: |
Wine Advocate #164(4/2006)Rating: 85points Drink: 2006-2016
This is a competent but uninspiring effort. Aromas of figs, plums, and black cherries emerge from this straightforward, soft, medium-bodied, simple, one-dimensional offering. Drink it over the next decade. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (3/31/ 2006) Score: 79
Silky and simple with some berry and herbal character with a lot of earth. Light- to medium-bodied, with firm tannins and a light finish. Jammy and funky. What in the world went wrong here? Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 33,330 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating:
(5th growth) Finely scented, well proportioned with intriguing mineral notes. Cool, calm and collected. Subtle and persuasive from beginning to end. Drink 2010-18. |
