Vinous
Reviews 91-93 points Wine Advocate "... exhibits a dense, pure, nearly opaque color as well as surprising amounts of fat, licorice, cassis, blackberries, roasted meats, gamy smoked duck and Asian spice. Supple tannins and a thickness and unctuosity characterize this Cuvee Syrah, which was first made in 1978 from cuttings taken from the northern Rhone's Domaine Chave in Mauves. (RP)" 91-93 points Vinous "Inky ruby. Pungent dark berries and cherry on the nose, with complicating notes of olive, black cardamom and licorice. Chewy, spicy and bright, showing palate-staining flavors of sappy dark fruits. Finishes with solid grip, a jolt of licorice and outstanding persistence. (JR)"
