Review: "Medium green-yellow. Multifaceted bouquet of yellow apple, thyme, marshmallow and honey. Complex flavors of black pepper, herbs and apple are supported by well-integrated acidity. The finish exhibits impressive finesse, with notes of crisp apple, ripe pear and salty minerality. Boasts very good aging potential. Drink now to 2017." - 93 pts, Peter Moser, Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar, Nov./Dec. 2008.
