89 Points

Tuesday, September 19, 2006 - Deep ruby core, purple tints, narrow pale ruby rim.
Intense nose with plum and red fruit notes. Showing some development with pencil shavings.
On the palate this is medium + bodied with plenty of ripe tannins. There is very good depth here with plums and red cherries and mineral notes emerging on a long finish with lovely fresh acidity. Rich and powerful, but very well balanced.
Still on the young side this should develop very nicely over at least the next 5-7 years. (Leave the next bottle at least 18 mths).
