Tasting Notes

Pale crimson. Very light nose and light body with no excess but not really much there at all. Green finish.

Score: 14

Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com Maturity: 2008-2012 13 October 2010

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.

Score: 85

Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2006-2016 01 April 2006

(blend based on 71% cabernet sauvignon) Medium red-ruby. Syrupy dark berries on the ripe nose. Sweet on entry, then high-pitched and tight in the middle, with nicely concentrated flavors of blueberry, black cherry and minerals. Seems reasonably ripe but could use a bit more flesh. The firm tannins avoid dryness. Finishes with good persistence

Score: 85 - 88
