THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2006 Clos de Sarpe is medium to deep garnet in color and scented of crème de cassis, blackberry pie and mulberries with touches of underbrush, sandalwood, pencil shavings and tobacco. Medium-bodied with a rock-solid frame of grainy tannins and wonderful freshness, it has a great core of ripe, savory/sweet fruit and a very long finish."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Talk about hot off the press... This was just bottled yesterday! Deep ruby color, black jammy raspberries, crushed stone and a powerful mouth presence announce this wine. Large scaled, dense and concentrated, it's also massively tannic with a long, mineral, earthy, licorice, black fruit filled finish. This wine demands aging 91 Points"
