Wine Enthusiast: 96 Points
Inky ruby in color, this wine proffers a bouquet of black currant, almond blossom and dark chocolate. It is bright at first sip, opening with cherry and pomegranate flavors that are rapidly joined by durable tannins and additional notes of cocoa powder, freshly ground espresso, lavender and a touch of orange zest. The wine winds down to a surprisingly bright finish.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Quite a mineral Gran Reserva expression with wet stones and hints of sweet spices to the minty plums and cherries. Vibrant and linear on the palate, with a very tight coating of tannins rounding the core of red berry fruit. Long and scented finish.
