Beautiful big funky, herbal, plummy nose - a bit of wet hay? Fine tannins fully integrated into round ripe black fruit. Add lots of provencale herb, farmyard, cut grass, and leather. Really good. — 10 years ago

9.3

Weighty, meaty, smoky, mineral nose with underripe pineapple skin and green mango, burnt golden syrup, grilled pineapple & plantain or sugar cain.
Palate has a real bottom heavy weight, this is wine with a lot of mineral intensity and stoney depth along aniseed infused Asian pear, stony mineral finish, long with great depth — 10 years ago

Willamette Savy can kill it - perhaps it's been unjustly overlooked. — 11 years ago

9.2

A completely different experience than '10, rounder, but much lighter than the '09. Tons of mint and a beautiful texture with the classic Vatan stoney minerality. Won't last as long as '08-'10 but really good for early drinking. — 12 years ago

Glen Hayley

9.1

Vibrant red fruits and lead, spice and licorice. Very very dry from the tannin and high acid but once it settles in it was real tasty. Stoney finish. — 11 years ago
