Score 90-92/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
Pungently aromatic, superripe nose of grapefruit, mango and honey. Silky and voluminous, with very strong extract and enough acidity to maintain its freshness. Actually rather stylish for a white wine of this much sheer size. Very long, rather powerful finish shows some youthful harshness. Impressive now, but I'd rather go back to this five or six years down the road.
