"This is an exceptionally impressive effort by any standard with a pure, ripe and highly complex nose of fennel, white flower, citrus and orchard fruit aromas trimmed in a discreet touch of oak spice that can also be found on the rich, powerful, concentrated and equally pure big-bodied flavors that possess admirably vibrancy and outstanding length. While this could easily be held longer as it has only just arrived at its peak, there is not much, if any, upside development potential remaining. In short, this is a beautiful wine."
