From The Wine Spectator, "Richly layered, with fig, boysenberry and blackberry paste flavors jockeying for position while Christmas pudding, dark chocolate and Black Forest cake notes add an exotic edge through the finish. Has some seriously sneaky grip too, with a roasted apple wood note well-buried. This will be fun to age. Best from 2030 through 2045. 333 cases made." 95 Points From The Wine Enthusiast, "This wine has a powerful, dense structure that balances the ripe, jammy fruit and solid tannins. It is full of juicy acidity and the potential of delicious black-plum fruitiness. The wine is in a dry style, concentrated and needing time. Drink from 2026." 93 Points, Cellar Selection
