"The 2012 boasts a deep blue/purple color along with a big, sweet nose of kirsch liqueur, lavender, balsam wood, truffles and lead pencil shavings. The complex aromatics are followed by a full-bodied, opulently-textured, fleshy wine that has more in common with a 2009 than most 2012s tend to possess. This outstanding sleeper of the vintage should drink well for 10-15 years." -Robert Parker

"Multidimensional nose melds red berry liqueur, milk chocolate, underbrush, truffle and smoke...Lush, silky and sweet, with sneaky ripe acidity giving the flavors clarity and penetration."
