RATINGS

94+ Stephen Tanzer

Steely aromas of lime, ginger, crushed stone and menthol. Densely packed, rocky and closed but not at all hard, with a tactile, saline texture and impressive volume for the year.

...nose features the barest hint of wood spice that marries well with the explosive green and yellow fruit aromas and fresh, full, powerful, beautifully delineated flavors underpinned by a driving minerality and stunning length.

92Wine Spectator

On the austere side, with a steely temperament and a taut structure guarding the apple, lemon and mineral flavors.
