RATINGS: 87 Points - Wine Spectator
"There's a core of cherry here, but also a dry, woody element from the start. The dryness takes over midpalate and continues on the finish. Sweet, licorice and spice note finally emerge, but it's dry in the end."
THREE STARS - Highly Recommended - La Revue Du Vin De France

"One of the best wines in this tasting, and just short of the "coup de coeur". This negociant house knows where to go for the best material. Complete and mellow, this wine has deep color and an interesting nose. Vanilla and chocoalte in just the right doses, opening up rasberries and the grap variety's aromas." -
