RATINGS

100The Wine Advocate

I was blown away by the utterly remarkable flinty, steely, almost petrolly, super-ripe fruit it contained.. Explosions of unreal minerality and super-rich fruits took over. I soon realized that I had tears rolling down my cheeks.

91Wine Spectator

Let this age or breathe and you will find some amazingly long flavors--citrus, toasted oak, ripe fruit, honey--that last for minutes on the finish.
