James Suckling
I love the nose on this, with blackberry, black licorice, and dark chocolate. Full-bodied, medium sweet and very, very dense. What seductive mouthfeel, with polished, round tannins that caress the palate. This may be better than the fantastic 1994. 95-98 points

This has an expressive nose with blackberry, raspberry liqueur, crème de menthe and a touch of honey. Less complex than the Dow but more approachable. The palate is very well balanced with quite a fleshy, succulent entry, nice grip, quite gentle but building nicely to a more structured finish. Just the right amount of backbone without detracting from its more approachable personality. It just lacks a bit of chutzpah. Tasted May 2009. 90 points
