Wine Spectator
This silky red is gracefully complex, offering detailed flavors of raspberry and cherry laced with rose petal, orange peel and dusky spice notes that build richness and texture toward refined tannins.
James Suckling
Black cherry, iodine, mussel shell, dark fruit and sliced strawberry aromas. Medium to full body with firm and chewy tannins. But there is a softness on the center palate. Needs time to open with bottle age. Very structured.

These soils contribute to developing a vibrant profile, imparting a distinctive minerality that enhances the wine providing excellent structure and longevity.
