Score 92/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2006
(14.9% alcohol, from a crop level less than 1.5 tons per acre): Good deep ruby-red. Very ripe aromas of blackcurrant, black cherry, coffee and flowers. Supple, sweet and aromatic, with surprisingly delicate flavors of dark cherry, brown spices and flowers enlivened by an edge of ripe acidity. Finishes with firm tannins and noteworthy perfume. The basic bottling seems even sweeter today, but its tannins come earlier.
