"An exuberant red, this is bursting with bright, fresh berry and cassis bush flavors, almost sweet on the palate, supported by light tannins. Drink now. 5,000 cases made. 85 points" Wine Spectator

"Round and fleshy, with enticing spice, blueberry, fig and boysenberry flavors backed by hints of fruitcake and melted licorice. Stays fresh and vivid on the finish, with a lingering mocha hint. Drink now through 2009. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 11,000 cases imported. 90 points" Wine Spectator
