Rating 96 + Robert Parker Wine Review - Deep garnet-purple colored, it needs a little coaxing to unlock a powerhouse of black fruit preserves, offering notes of blackberry pie, crème de cassis and black cherry compote, giving way to nuances of Chinese five spice, camphor, chocolate box and licorice with a touch of crushed rocks. The medium to full- bodied palate is jam-packed with plush textured, rich black fruits, supported by a lively backbone and finishing long and spicy.
