According to Robert Parker: "This property, which made brilliant wines in 1988, 1989, and 1990, fashioned respectable wines in both 1991 and 1992. The 1991 exhibits a formidable, opaque, dark purple color, and a tight but promising nose of licorice, minerals, and blackcurrants. The attack offers wonderfully ripe fruit in a medium-bodied format, but the finish is dominated by hard, tough tannin. Is there sufficient fruit? I think so. It is one of the most promising wines of the vintage, but backward. This wine needs a good 2-3 years of cellaring; it should last for 15 or more." (02/94) According to Wine Spectator: "Solid as rock. Well-structured and very balanced with lovely reserved violet, berry character, firm tannins and a long, slightly herbaceous finish. Drinkable now." (03/94)
