Wine Spectator: Still tight, with blanched almond and pear skin notes holding the core of green fig, white peach and salted butter at bay for now. The long finish, featuring mineral and flora...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright straw-yellow. Complex nose hints at smoke, honey, mint, minerals and clove. Suave and dry in the mouth, with solid fat leavened by integrated acidity. There's a lemony ...
