May 15, 2015 - Earth, wet clay, smoke and black raspberries open the nose. On the palate, the wine is soft, medium bodied and plummy with a blast of black licorice in the finish

April 26, 2013 - The medium-bodied, 100% Merlot wine is filled with jammy black raspberries, soft, silky textures and a round, dark chocolate- and cherry-filled finish. 90-92 Pts

April 8, 2013 - 2012 En Primeur - Kelly and Kevin’s excellent adventure; 4/4/2013-4/9/2013 (Bordeaux, France): My earlier sampling showed some heat. This is a lot better. Is it the wine or me, not sure? Blue fruits, cool fruit impression, good balance and nicely integrated tannins.
