The Wine Advocate (August 2012):

"The 2005 "200 Monges" Seleccion Especial is a winery selection made by tasting each of the lots, and it is raised entirely in new French oak from different coopers and different toastings. It has an obdurate, broody bouquet whose intense dark plum fruit is tightly wound and unfurls reluctantly with notes of blackberry, licorice and blood orange. The palate is medium-bodied with superb structure and sense of symmetry, dictated by the crisp acidity that underpins this wine from start to finish. However, I just wish the oak were more subsumed into the fruit profile. It has a firm backbone and a tannic finish and it merits four to five years cellaring. Drink 2016-2025."

Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Sept/Oct 2013):

"Ruby-red. Sexy raspberry and blackberry liqueur aromas are complicated by suggestions of Asian spices, incense and woodsmoke. Juicy red berry flavors deepen and expand with air, picking up floral pastille and spicecake nuances. Supple tannins come on late and add shape to the long, sweet, smoky finish. Impressively suave and already delicious but this wine is built to age."
