Critics Ratings
'Bright yellow. Intensely perfumed, mineral-accented aromas of dried lemon, pear, chamomile and anise, with a smoky overtone. Pliant, deeply pitched citrus and orchard fruit flavors are complimented by suave floral and buttered toast qualities and sharpened by a chalky nuance. The toasty note carries through a strikingly long, creamy finish, which leaves notes of pear skin and lemon curd behind.' - Josh Raynolds, Vinous, 92/100 (Nov 2013)
