RATINGS

95The Wine Advocate

...ripe floral, spiced pear, sea breeze & pungent mineral notes... exuberant & extremely rich broad-shouldered... outstanding power on the ultra-dry, intense & linear finish... should be genuinely stunning in time. In a word, brilliant.

This overtly salty, focused and again, chiseled effort displays seriously impressive development potential and it should be genuinely stunning in time. In a word, brilliant.

92Stephen Tanzer

Tight and gripping grand cru with lovely mineral energy and a note of orange oil giving a tactile quality to the brisk, mounting finish. Built to age...
