2008 Vintage: 93pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Ripe cherries and earthy minerals lead to a savory, ripe, southern Rhone-like offering that will provide pleasure for a decade." 92pts Wine Spectator "On the lighter side, but dense with tar, black olive and rose scents around a core of dark berry and cherry fruit, smoothing out nicely on the extensive finish. Drink now through 2015." 90pts Wine Enthusiast "Very floral, with lovely scents of lily and spice. It’s all fruit, with no new wood, and some whole cluster fl avors of bark and stem. All nicely integrated and subtle, adding texture and detail. There is a streak of balsamic, and tart berry fruit flavors with a powerful, peppery, earthy component from the vineyard." Biodynamically farmed vineyard sources. 14 months in neutral oak. Think Chateauneuf Du Pape. Crushed cranberry, grilled meat, and spice box. Focused finesse. What “Boy”?....this is the "MAN"! |
