Vintage 2011
94 points jamessuckling.com
Deep vibrant purple/red in the glass with aromas of blackberry, black plum, and blackcurrant plus hints of wintergreen, forest floor, deep set spice, smoky oak and roasting meats. Textured and smooth as silk on the palate. The spicy black fruits flow in a savoury line through a curtain of fine, ripe, powdery tannins to a persistent finish.

Vintage 2011
93 points erobertparker.com
A blended of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, the 2011 Sophia is medium to deep garnet-purple colour and presents a nose of warm cassis, preserved plums and blackberry compote with hints of pencil shavings, cinnamon toast, plus a touch of Mediterranean herbs. Medium bodied and tightly knit in the mouth, it has a firm level of chewy tannins and balanced acid framing the conservative fruit cone through a finish with good persistance. Drink it now to 2021+
