“Spice, cherry and berry aromas and flavors are accented by vegetal and licorice notes as this plays out on the palate. A dense wine, with sweetness that balances the structure. This should develop beautifully.” - Wine Spectator (6/2012)
93-96 Points
“Compelling aromas of extremely fresh and airy menthol-infused red berry fruit, soil and distinctly spiced tones plus an underlying hint of animale transfers over to the rich, full and serious broad-shouldered flavors brimming with dry extract and supported by impressively refined and ripe tannins that are almost completely buffered on the powerful and balanced finish by the buckets of mid-palate sap. Terrific. Don't Miss!” - Burghound (1/2011)

“Red-ruby. Knock-out multi-dimensional nose combines red berries, licorice, orange peel and pungent smoky minerality. Dense, sappy, sweet and very young; much more about soil than Pinot Noir fruit. Offers intriguing saline and orange peel notes, plus a licorice quality that Hervet says comes from soil rich in silica (like Vosne-Romanee Les Reignots). Wonderfully tactile finish offers outstanding lift and some sweet new oak. This got better and better in the glass.” - Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (1/2011)
