RATINGS

95+ The Wine Advocate

...aromas of peach, lemon oil, freshly baked bread, oyster shell and struck match...full-bodied, concentrated and incisive, with a racy, electric profile and a searingly saline, intensely penetrating finish of striking persistence.

94Burghound.com

There is excellent size, weight and richness to the broad-shouldered yet sleek flavors if not nearly the same refinement on the powerful and driving finish

92-94Vinous / IWC

The vibrant palate is full of energy, taut and strict, with a fine bead of acidity and a penetrating, sour-lemon-tinged finish that lingers in the mouth.

17Jancis Robinson

Lightly smoky nose – much tighter than the Bougros Côte Bouguerots, and with fine acidity.
