Expert Reviews

92 Points | International Wine Cellar , May/June 2011

(2.4 g/l residual sugar, vs. just under 1 gram for the 2009):  Good full golden yellow with a green tinge. Spicy, leesy aromas of nectarine and tropical fruits.  Fat, rich and lightly saline; in a sweeter, fruitier style than the young 2009 but showing less mineral and stony influence.  And a tad aggressive on the back end today.  This wine finished its malo in the first year but the sugar fermentation lasted until the spring of 2010.
