By Josh Raynolds
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 07
"Inky purple. Vibrant red and dark berries on the nose, with sexy vanillin oak, Asian spices, fresh flowers and bright minerality. A silky, graceful midweight, displaying vivid raspberry and blackberry flavors and slow-building tannic grip. More tangy than the 2004, and at least as elegant, finishing with outstanding clarity and persistence. 93(+?) points."

"Oak dominates this red, but it's delicious oak, with cola, toasty vanilla and smoke flavors. There's also plenty of fruit, tart cherry and raspberry, with ripe tannins and lip-smacking acidity. A modern style. Expressive and lively. Monastrell and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2012. 1,125 cases made. –TM"  Wine Spectator, Nov. 15, 2007.
