Jancis Robinson: Exotic nose with hints of botrytis. Strong lemon-marmalade character. Big and bold for a 2010 sweet white with some richness and density. Clean and fresh - no enormous weight....

Wine Spectator: Really big and rich, with lots of raw date, glazed pear, creamed peach and fig aromas and flavors. Very lush and long, but also clean and round despite its heft. -J.M.
