Extremely elegant and focused, this compelling wine defies the heat of the
vintage, starting with a heady fragrance of ripe dark-skinned berries, violet,
camphor, dark spice and whiffs of crushed herbs. On the linear, elegantly
structured palate, tightly woven but extremely polished tannins accompany juicy
Marasca cherry, blood orange, licorice and white pepper while fresh acidity
keeps it balanced and fresh. 97 points, Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast
