"A smooth and concentrated wine, very rich. Peach and nectarine fruits dominate, the acidity coming from a crisp citrus streak. The wine could benefit from another year in bottle to reveal its true intensity." 91 Points - Wine Enthusiast

"An elegant, pure and airy nose features notes of pear, lemon rind and pain grillé that introduces textured, intense and sappy middle weight flavors that culminate in a linear, persistent and moderately austere finish. This should round into form quickly however as there is good mid-palate fat. Drink 2011+" 87-90 - Points - Allen Meadows - Burghound
