WINE SPECTATOR INSIDER – JAMES MOLESWORTH

95 POINTS – $66 – 4100 cs imported Packed, in a brawny, muscular style atypical for this lush vintage, with a gravelly undertow to the currant paste, braised fig and dark licorice notes. Picks up even more steam on the finish, with grilled mesquite, mineral and garrigue notes and a long, hot stone-filled finish. Best from 2010 through 2030.—J.M.
