Wine Spectator Magazine:
"Licorice, blackberry and huckleberry flavors mingle nicely with brewed tea, fresh cracked pepper and spice notes. The tannins are firm, but never get in the way of the flavors. Drink now through 2014. 566 cases made." –MW (Nov 15, 2009)

Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"Give this young wine some time in the cellar to shed its baby fat. It’s rich and slightly sweet in raspberries, cherries, cotton candy, mocha and vanilla wafer flavors, tucked into firm tannins."  — S.H.  (11/1/2009)
