"A thick, dense and immensely attractive Rhône red.Harmonious from start to finish, with a distinctvanilla, sweet chocolate and spice character plusripe black fruit, roasted game, grilled meat andsmoke notes. Incredibly silky tannin structure.Melts like cream on the focused, cleanfinish. Drink now through 2015. 1,125 cases made. –PM"

"This opaque purple-colored effort was among the most backward wines in the tasting. Although subdued aromatically, it is enormously endowed, concentrated, and fabulous in the mouth. With high tannin as well as extraordinary blackberry and cassis fruit mixed with minerals and subtle new oak, it cuts a huge swath across the palate, but is not heavy. Give it another 3-4 years of cellaring and drink it over the following three decades. It is a quasi-modern-styled Chateauneuf du Pape, but clearly has not lost its typicity. Issue #131 rating: 96"
