Wine Spectator 91 points - Lushly spiced, offering concentrated dark fruit flavors that feature graphite and mineral shadings. Rich, powerful tannins linger on the finish, with chocolate mousse and Asian spice details. Drink now through 2022. 1,300 cases made. -KM.December/2017

Wine Enthusiast 91 points - EDITOR’S CHOICE - This deeply colored Tannat is an indicator of what this young winery will do in good vintages. After robust dark-fruit aromas make their mark, this feels lush but also tannic. Black-fruit flavors are aided by notes of chocolate and mixed spices, while it finishes sturdy on a savory aftertaste. Drink through 2020..December/2017

Wine & Spirits 91 points - An exuberant vintage for this wine, this seems to have absorbed Garzon’s sun to deliver ripe and unctuous flavors of blackberries and cherries. The wine’s tannins are firm and austere, though not as fierce as you might expect from the variety. It’s in fact a tame tannat, with a delicious fruity core..June/2018
