Tax included
Wine Spectator (March 2013) 91/100
A solid core of cassis ansd blackberry fruit is a liberally framed by dark cocoa and expresso notes and carried through the caressing, blueberry, spice, and licorice-filled finish.
Wine Advocate - Robert Parker (February 2013) 89/100
The 2012 is certainly a major improvment. Deep, subtle, cedar and Christmas fruit cake, ripe, well-made wine which displays some butle oak as well as excellent ripeness, texture and length.
