Wine Critics Notes:

Allen Meadows - Score: 96 (2018 Jan.)

A super-fresh nose combines notes of a lovely variety of floral and red berry scents with those of warm earth, humus, underbrush and a wisp of spice. There is excellent volume and first-rate power to the imposingly-scaled flavors that possess a surprisingly sleek mid-palate mouthfeel that contrasts considerably with the robust, structured and youthfully austere finish that also delivers stunning length. Once again though make no mistake, this is a bad boy that's going to need plenty of cellar time; indeed it is what I call a 'buy and forget you own it' wine.
