"It’s an elegant wine on a grand scale, with the fresh juiciness of nectarine and the woodsy notes of pear skin. Check on this six to eight years from the vintage, as a partner for crab or langoustines.”

“...cool, fragrant and rich, an evocation of limestone caught, for now, in the vanilla and spice scents of the oak in which it aged. ...The freshness of the wine will sustain it as the flavors grow more complex.”
