90 ST. "A 95/5 blend [of Semillion/Sauvignon Blanc]) Slightly hazy appearance (this is bottled without fining or filtration). Candied yellow fruits, light herbs and spices on the scented nose. Intensely flavored and spicy on the palate, with a note of marzipan adding complexity to the fleshy candied fruit and spiced pear flavors. Very sappy and aromatic on the long, vibrant finish, with a sexy oak component providing further interest." Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Sep/Oct 2008 |
