RATINGS

94Wine Spectator

This beauty is creamy and finely knit, showing off lemon cake, apple, floral and mineral flavors. Impeccably balanced and long, this unfolds slowly to reveal an aftertaste that echoes lemon, mineral and spice.

91-92Stephen Tanzer

Restrained aromas of lemon, minerals and flint. Juicy, lemony and brisk, with underlying minerality giving the broad mid-palate a light touch.

90-93Burghound.com

...rich, generously proportioned, fleshy and full-bodied flavors are solidly concentrated and a bit more mineral-driven than usual while ending in an intense, attractively textured and impressively lingering finish.

89-91The Wine Advocate

The palate is fresh on the entry with a bright opening and then it hunkers down towards a more stony, precise, flinty finish.

16+ Jancis Robinson

A little mild on the nose. Very tight indeed. Inexpressive today but I’m sure it will emerge. There is lots of matter there on the palate.
