88 points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate (2012 vintage)
“A smoking value, the Charles Smith Boom Boom! gives up notions of blackberry, pepper, herbs and hints of earth to go with a medium to full-bodied, supple and voluptuously textured profile on the palate. Made from a blend of 97% Syrah and 3% Viognier, buy it by the case and drink bottles over the coming 2-3 years.”
