92 Points

Saturday, February 13, 2010 - Fruit and earth aromas explode from the glass. Extremely rich and sweet mouthfeel: dried cherries, ripe plums, bacon, cranberry(?), freshly-plowed wet earth. Liberal use of toasty oak but not off-putting in this package. Balanced. Just a touch of rustic character links a modern wine making style with simple vino tinto roots. Unfortunately wine-searcher doesn't show any availability because this one would tempt me. About $60 from a pricey restaurant wine list but I'd say it would be worth that retail. Excellent with a wonderful future. 92+
