Score 96/100 · Drink 2014-2024, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Feb 2014

Deep garnet-purple in color and projecting intense aromas of creme de cassis, warm black plums and blueberry compote enhanced by hints of tar, aniseed, smoked meat and even a slight lift of honeysuckle, the full-bodied 2010 Descendent is already displaying great harmony at this early stage as it fills the mouth with perfumed black fruits supported by medium to firm, rounded tannins and balanced acid. It finishes very long. Approachable now and drink to 2024+. Importer by Wine Creek, LLC., Healdsburg, CA.
