RATINGS

94Vinous / IWC

Flint and green apple notes...long, spicy aftertaste and impressive precision.

92-94+ The Wine Advocate

...aromas of spring flowers, white peach, lemon, pastry cream and blanched almonds. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, elegantly textural but tangy, with a pure, fine-boned profile.

17.5Jancis Robinson

Ripe pear and pure citrus and just a hint of oak spice...explodes on the palate, great power and muscle but all toned and shaped by the acidity. Long, textured finish.
