93 Points | International Wine Cellar , November/December 2012

(60% pinot noir and 40% chardonnay; L21932009):  Light gold.  Vibrant, mineral-accented aromas of citrus fruits, quince and white flowers, along with subtle sea salt and iodine nuances and slow-building toastiness.  Sappy, penetrating and pure, offering assertive Meyer lemon and pear flavors and complicating notes of anise and ginger.  I'd have guessed that there was more chardonnay in here.  Finishes with outstanding clarity and thrust, leaving a spicy quality behind.
