"A vibrant and juicy red, exuding cherry, raspberry, floral and spice flavors. Accents of earth, tar and underbrush emerge as this winds down on the long aftertaste. This is harmonious and approachable now yet better in a few years. Best from 2027 through 2042." —Wine Spectator

"Restrained red cherry pits, red currants, cinnamon and some earthy minerality. Sucrosity on the palate, with a full body, crisp acidity and refined, velvety tannins. Tense and tight yet balanced finish. Drink or hold." —James Suckling
