Critics Ratings

‘The mouthcoating texture is complemented by bright acidity, setting the stage for peach, apple and grapefruit flavors. Oak spice adds depth, and this cruises to a long finish. Best from 2011 through 2022.’ – Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 92/100 (Jun 2010)

‘Rich and well crafted and etched with great weight of fruit underneath.’ – Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Jan 2009)
