90pts Wine Enthusiast
Velvety in texture and full in body, this moderately tannic wine is packed with milk chocolate, black cherries and vanilla flavors. It is quietly powerful, and its rich chocolaty character lingers on the finish.
Nose of lemon, quince, flinty minerality, a touch of bread dough and a top-note of citrus zest. Crisp, medium-full and nicely soil-driven, good core, frothy mousse and a long, bright, bouncy finish.
90Pts JS: Sliced green apple, lemon zest and white almond on the nose with a crisp and bright profile of yellow and green fruit on the palate. Elegant and fresh-toned.

Crisp pear, lime and grapefruit-pith aromas combine for a fresh and zesty entry to the nose of this bottling. The palate sizzles with acidity and grips with a chalky texture, giving way to grass, green-pear and green-pepper flavors.
This dry, full-bodied red blend offers a balanced fusion of black fruit and a savory edge of cigar. The winemakers have aged each component in oak barrels to produce a soft mouth-feel and juicy, lingering finish that will leave you wanting more.
