  Outstanding and terrific value. Moderate concentration and excellent balance, early tertiary notes, medium-long finish. Turning the corner but lots of life left.

  Wine Spectator rated it 92:
  A big, broad-shouldered Cabernet, with lots of toast
  and mocha leading the way for dark plum, currant
  paste, fig, graphite and coca notes. The long,
  smoky, fleshy finish lets the toast influence take
  over. Drink now through 2013.448 cases made.

  Wine Enthusiast rated it 93:
  This is a dense and concentrated wine, still in its youth, with
  heady, fruity tones of black plum, berry, cassis and date that
  are layered with notes of licorice, cigar box and roasted
  cocoa nib. The mouthfeel is ripe and lush, with firm,
  gripping tannins providing balance and structure, lingering
  long on the finish. Drink now-2020.

  Good stuff, no detailed notes, but very enjoyable, and ready to drink at 10 years old.
