"A notably ripe and ever-so-mildly exotic but not surmature nose of primarily spicy yellow orchard fruit gives way to rich, powerful and impressively vibrant broad-shouldered flavors that possess excellent size and weight though not the detail of the Caillerets on the palate staining and hugely persistent finish. This is a big and opulent but not heavy or ponderous Criots though one would be hard pressed to describe it as an elegant version." Burghound.com, Feb 01, 2011 |
