RATINGS

97Burghound.com

...softly exotic nose blends notes of lavender, acacia and spice along with hints of orange and lemon zest. There is excellent concentration to the powerful broad-shouldered flavors that are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that buffers the chiseled, precise and super-saline finish. This is a breathtakingly good Bâtard though note well that it's indisputably built to reward extended cellaring.

94+ The Wine Advocate

...opening in the glass to reveal aromas of pear, clear honey, buttered toast, mandarin oil and white flowers. Full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's rich but tightly wound, with a deep core of fruit, bright acids and a long, penetrating finish.
