RATINGS

94-95The Wine Advocate

...salty-sweet, saliva-inducing savor of shrimp shell reduction, leading to a mouthwateringly long and dazzlingly interactive finishing colloquy of flower, fruit and mineral.

93Vinous / IWC

...impresses for its energy and delineation. Lemon oil. White flowers, sage and mint add complexity on the inviting, textured finish...built on structure, with broad shoulders and enough stuffing to age well for a number of years.

90-92Burghound.com

...round, supple and distinctly rich flavors that, like the nose, are on the understated side with lovely balance on the lemon and mineral-inflected finish that delivers very fine persistence. A wine of harmony and grace.
