Score 91/100 · Josh Raynolds, Jan 2007
Yellow-gold. Pungent aromas of peach, pear and apricot complicated by exotic spices and violet. Concentrated, suave and silky, with an explosively sweet peach flavor complemented by cinnamon, clove and allspice. The floral quality lingers on the long, spicy finish. This was raised in barriques, 25% of them new.
