Critics Ratings
'A beautifully ripe wine, layered with the richest fruit, the acidity offering a bright moment within the richness. Botrytis is there, like a hard core for the pillow of ripe apricots, lychees, spice and fine freshness.' - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, 95/100 (Jun 2010)
'Mid gold. Developed, cheesy nose. Very, very sweet. Amazingly so. Some miracle has been performed here. Very round and charming but very long too. This wine was difficult to spit! Punchy - big impact, quite neat. Certainly concentrated. Still quite chewy on the finish.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 19-/20 (Apr 2008)
'Displays dried citrus peel and honey on the nose, turning to flowers. Medium-bodied, with lots of sweetness and a spicy aftertaste of honey and tropical fruit. There's plenty of botrytis. Best after 2012.' - Wine Spectator, 91/100 (Mar 2010)
