Wine Critics Notes:

Allen Meadows - Score: 91 (2010 June)

The nose has now turned to a primarily secondary fruit character that has added depth from the spice, earth and underbrush nuances that continue onto the rich and full-bodied flavors that possess excellent complexity on the long, delicious, precise and driving finish. There is a slight touch of leanness on the finish but the mid-palate mouth feel largely counteracts it. A terrific effort that is aging well and this could be enjoyed now or held for a few more years, which is what I would advise.
