Stylish, with lemon curd, honeysuckle and straw notes that follow through on the creamy, pure finish. Very long and stony, with nice precision. Drink now through 2010. -JM

From a vineyard planted with almost 7,000 vines per acre, and with low yields (2 bunches) per vine, you would expect concentration. And the wine is hugely perfumed, very aromatic, the fruit flavored with essence of green plum and grapefruit juice. It’s the sort of wine that needs at least 3–4 years aging.——R.V.(5/1/2008)—— 93
