...explosive aromas of peach, apricot and a hint of baked apple that give way to complex, intense, structured and deep flavors that offer a wonderfully textured, almost chewy quality and outstanding length.

92Stephen Tanzer

Complex, surprisingly expressive aromas of lime, crushed stone, mint and white flowers. Very rich and minerally but a bit youthfully austere despite its rather round texture, with notes of grapefruit, lemon, chalk and mint.
