Critics Ratings
2008
'A markedly floral nose is composed of notes of lilac, violets, spice and sandalwood notes. There is good intensity to the sleek mineral-driven flavors that retain a lovely sense of both tension and delineation, all wrapped in a dusty and serious finish that delivers excellent length. This firm effort is still on the way up and for my tate it's going to require at least another 5 years of cellar time before it's completely ready for prime time. Drink 2022+.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 92/100 (Apr 2016)

'A ripe yet still cool and elegant nose of classic Vosne-style spice notes adds breadth to the black fruit and stone aromas. The naturally sweet and succulent flavors brim with a fine minerality and plenty of mouth coating dry extract that conclude with a dusty, firm and impressively persistent finish. This is terrific and should age effortlessly. Drink 2024+.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 93/100 (Jan 2012)
