90 Points | International Wine Cellar , November 2012

(50% chardonnay, 30% pinot noir and 20% pinot meunier; L8627211):  Light gold.  Ripe yellow plum and dried pear on the intensely perfumed nose, with complicating notes of white flowers and chalk.  Silky, concentrated, sappy citrus and orchard fruit flavors and notes of dusty minerals, anise and honey.  The tangy finish shows a refreshingly bitter quality and clings with very good spiciness and length.
