90 pts Wine Enthusiast - v.21
This wine is opulent with aromas of Blackberry, Blueberry compote, violet, dark chocolate, and chicory on the nose. The flavors on the palate are Lingonberry jam, black currant confiture, orange zest, vanilla cream wafting with maple, tobacco leaf, and a dry finish. Decant and Pair with Mole. — Tonya Pitts
93 pts Wine Enthusiast - v.20
This is a full-bodied, generous wine that has a lot to give and will give even more as it ages. Notes of plump black plum, blackberry, dried black cherry, fresh and dried violets and chocolate with subtle hints of spice meat and barnyard that add depth, complexity and make this varietal Petite Sirah not just fun but interesting as well. — Stacy Briscoe
92 pts Wine Enthusiast v.19
This wine, aged in 33% new French barrels, shows the grape variety in all its deep, dark and tannic glory. An inky color, black pepper aromas and deep blueberry and blackberry flavors are backed by a firm texture that will pair nicely with wild boar, venison or a hamburger. — Jim Gordon
