Wine Advocate: 97 Points
Very balanced wine that talks about the place where it was born. This is vibrant and expressive, with a complex nose and especially a lively palate with effervescent acidity and very fine-boned with elegant but firm tannins I find the recurring iron-like note of blood and fresh meat here too, intermixed with the wild flowers, herbs and spices.
