Critics Ratings

'Again perfumed, hints of white flowers and citrus. Then a different animal on the palate. Powerful and evident oak but lovely harmony already between oak and fruit.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18.5/20 (Jan 2008)

'Entices with its floral and citronella aromas, then follows through with macaroon, lime and mineral flavors. These are set against a refined structure and a creamy texture that lends a lighter-than-air feel. The finish goes on and on. Best from 2010 through 2025.' - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 96/100 (Sep 2008)

'Power and elegance combine in this beautifully structured wine. The vineyard, of course, does the work, but the intensity of the rich fruits is given a fine twist of minerality, of tension, and of firm acidity. This wine will age 5-10 years and beyond. The acidity of 2006 will see to that.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 95/100 (Oct 2008)
