Allen Meadows - Score: 92 (2015 January)

A notably more refined nose speaks of ripe and very fresh dark berry liqueur aromas where background notes of pomegranate, spice and violet scents can be discerned. There is fine concentration to the lightly mineral-inflected medium-bodied flavors that possess good size and weight before concluding in a gorgeously persistent finish. This is beautifully well-balanced and built for medium to longer-term cellaring.
