95 Points – Wine Spectator
“Very youthful, with a ripe core of red currant and raspberry fruit and licorice flavor surrounded by creamy tannins. Plenty of smoke, mineral and tobacco notes chiming in, but this still has a ways to go, with plenty of grip still on the finish.–1995 Châteauneuf-du-Pape retrospective. Drink now through 2025. 20,000 cases made.”
