Tasting note: This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, with the Cabernet dominating, looks to be the best they have ever produced, even eclipsing the 2005. Dense purple in color, with extraordinarily elegant floral notes intermixed with raspberry, black currant, cherry, and spice box, it is medium to full-bodied, not massive, but again, very seamless, with beautiful precision, sweet tannins, and an endearing fleshiness and depth of flavor that are neither heavy nor fatiguing. (92-94pts. Robert Parker)

Tasted: Apr. 2010
Score: 92-94
Drink: 2010-40

Tasting note: Very pretty and aromatic on the nose, with currant and flowers. Medium-bodied, with fine tannins and a clean finish. (88-91pts. JS, Wine Spectator)
