RATINGS

95Burghound.com

Admirably cool and pure aromas of peach, pear and apricot are trimmed in subtle nuances of smoke, tea and white flowers. There is seriously good richness and volume to the full-bodied, powerful and palate coating flavors that brim with dry extract on the sappy and utterly delicious finish where the persistence just goes on and on...

Musky oily peach aroma... Round, fat, saline and quite dry, but the stone fruit and marzipan flavors are in the background... Spreads out horizontally to coat the palate on the long finish...

89-91The Wine Advocate

...light estuarine-scented bouquet... The palate is medium-bodied with a saline entry...
