95 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "Good red-ruby. Deep, complex aromas of black and red raspberry, minerals and menthol. Big, lush and aromatic, with a texture of liquid silk supported by strong graphite minerality. The wine's medicinal reserve promises a slow evolution in bottle. Finishes impressively long, with very suave tannins that coat the teeth. This was aged in 85% new oak, vs. 100% for the 2006. May well match the superlative 2005. (May/Jun 2010)"
94 points Wine Spectator: "This shows uncommon depth and elegance to its range of flavors. Rich and layered, with tiers of mocha-laced currant, blackberry, sage, mineral and graphite, at points firm and at others supple, ending with touches of tobacco, sage and espresso. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot... 600 cases made. (11/15/10)"
