Tasting Notes
"There's superb fruit here, and what some term "grip," or structure. In our context, this implies weight and flavor, not heaviness or overpowering density. The purity of the fruit is hard to resist now, but it will become even more velvety, without losing its dark fruit, during the next decade." - Pierre Seillan, Vigneron
Acclaim
94+ Points, The Wine Advocate, Robert Parker, Jr., August 2002
"Exhibits sumptuous aromas of sweet saddle leather, cigar smoke, chocolaty black currants, and blackberries. Sweet, rich, full-bodied, complex, and tasting like Bordeaux on steroids, this is an enormously endowed, classic, distinctive cuvee that must be tasted to be believed. It represents a synthesis between France's Medoc and Northern California's ripe fruit. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2022."
