  Wine Enthusiast
  Freshness is the hallmark of this wine. The fruit is dominant, ripe and balanced with blackberry acidity. There is a possible hint of overextraction, but that is only a small failing in such a delicious wine."

  Weinwisser
  Dunkles Rubin-Granat, lila Schimmer. Sehr fruchtiges Bouquet, viel Kirschentöne, Waldhimbeeren, enggliedrig, aber noch etwas verhalten. Im Gaumen mittelgewichtig, mit verlangender, fast dominierender Adstringenz, blaubeeriges Finale. Ein etwas fordernder Wein mit interessanten Reserven."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  Mature, with a secondary nose of tobacco, earth, smoke, lead pencil and blackberries, the wine is soft, easy to drink and finishes with spicy, earthy, black cherries. From a blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot. There is no reason to hold this any longer."

  The Wine Advocate
  Aromas of cedar, spice box, incense, burning embers, black currants, and new wood jump from the glass of this full-bodied, structured effort. Behaving more like a Pauillac than a Margaux, it is a long, concentrated, powerful wine meant for long aging. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2025."
