"This beauty offers a stupendously graceful nose driven by grapefruit, lime, white flowers, fresh herbs, slate and spices, all wrapped in honeyed yellow fruits. The wine comes over as quite zesty, with tickling acidity and ample energy on the palate. It is fully mature now and, yet retains this superb complexity of truly great terroir in the hands of top winemakers. The finish is a textbook example of 'weightless power.'"
