I am impressed with this for the vintage. It’s full and round with a succulent, juicy structure, silky tannins and a plum, cocoa, cedar and berry aftertaste. Outstanding harmony for 2011. Try in 2017. - James Suckling
Medium ruby. High-pitched aromas of raspberry, coffee, cocoa and graphite. Dense, sappy and quite dry, with serious acidity giving spine to the flavors of red fruits, coffee, spices and graphite. Not an easy style but sharply chiseled and taut. Finishes with good subtle length. I find this has sneaky concentration and depth. - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast
Dark ruby garnet, violet reflections, subtle ocher edge. Ripe plums, a touch of figs and nougat, fresh blackberries and delicate exotic wood spices. Juicy, ripe and balanced, well-supported, developed tannins, chocolatey finish, already very well developed and drinkable, medium length, wild berries in the aftertaste.-Falstaff
75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot make up the blend. With a perfume of black cherry, smoke and lead pencil, the wine offers ample, fresh, chewy Cabernet flavors with freshness and cassis. 91-93-Jeff Leve, Wine Cellar Insider
Tasted blind. Quite a bit of age on the rim. Some toasty oak on the nose. But attractively resolved on the palate. Much more evolved than many of its peers but offering some easy drinking already.-Jancis Robinson
