Description

92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): “The 2011 Red blend Elevage is impeccable in its balance. Sweet red berries, iron, tobacco, mint and spices all come together in an attractive, medium-bodied wine that offers plenty of near-term appeal. The 2011 impresses for its persistence and overall sense of balance. Drink: 2015-2023. (Nov 2013)”

92 points/’Cellar Selection,’ Wine Enthusiast: “[$95 list] A Merlot-based blend with accompanying components of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, this estate-grown wine excels in its subdued, smoky and toasty oak surrounded by juicy blackberry and a hint of graphite and leather. Textured and structured, it needs time, and will be happy in the cellar through 2026. Alcohol 14.5%. (Apr 2015)”

91 points Wine Spectator: “[$95 list] Dense and layered, this is built for the cellar. Bold black currant aromas combine with rich, muscular flavors of black cherry, mineral and pencil lead, framed by firm tannins. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Best from 2016 through 2021. 1,654 cases made. (10/31/14)”
