Its deep purple color is followed by terrific notes of ripe blackberries, toasted spice, and dried herbs, with a hint of graphite. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated, with brilliant purity and lots of tannins, it’s killer wine to enjoy over the coming decade or more.\"  -\u003cb\u003e Jeb Dunnuck (October 19th 2017), 93 pts\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"This is a very impressive expression with such intense, energetic and vibrant ripe cherries and red berries.
