This wine is not terribly different, but Clone 6 is believed to be old Bordeaux clones brought over to Napa Valley and propagated. The wine has terrific fruit intensity, blackcurrants, blackberry, licorice, creosote and espresso roast. Deep, full-bodied, powerful and rich, this, again, shows the vintage's voluptuous texture, full-bodied power and richness.\"\n— Robert Parker"},{"type":"text","value":", "},{"type":"text","value":"The Wine Advocate","italic":true}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":""}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"95 Pts.","bold":true},{"type":"text","value":" \"Steadily builds from a tight, rich core of mocha-laced currant and blackberry to a broader, more expansive mix that folds in creamy, toasty, mocha-laced oak, unfolding to reveal tiers of flavor and nuance.\"\n— James Laube"},{"type":"text","value":", "},{"type":"text","value":"Wine Spectator","italic":true}]}]}
