Tasting Note: |
Wine Advocate#171(6/2007) Rating: 89 points Drink: 2007 - 2021
Attractive cassis aromas jump from the glass of this dark ruby/purple-tinged 2004. While elegant, medium-bodied, soft, and broad in the mouth, it is slightly superficial, without the broodingly deep, backward, muscular personality of this estate’s wines prior to 2001. Given its flavor profile and softness, the 2004 will have wide consumer appeal if drunk over the next 10-14 years. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator(3/31/2007) Score: 89
Aromas of currant bush and raspberry follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with velvety tannins and a medium finish. A balanced and pleasing wine already. Best after 2010. 35,000 cases made. –JS
Decanter Rating:
Wonderfully ripe, perfumed, lots of quality. Lovely fruit, retains the freshness of the vintage too. Stylish - lovely wine. Drink 2015/16-32/33. |
