This wine represents the death of the wine critic. On one hand, this was rated 91+ by WA but 86 by WS. On the other, the overall cuvée has higher impressions here.
Personally, and I suspect many of you are with me, the critic score has lessened significantly over the last couple of years. I would much rather buy a wine based on your reviews than what the professionals have to say.
Overall, this had great acidity. Wonderfully balanced with toasted oak and brambleberry. A lingering finish. A great job for a challenging vintage.
