There’s great depth to this wine. It is sweet, yes, but the range of fruits—from apricot to white pears to orange peel—and the weight and richness give it great intensity of flavor. In 10 years, this will be even better.——R.V.(5/1/2007)—— 93

The acidity is still there in this now-mature wine, keeping it lively while all the mature flavors swirl around. Pepper and richness combine, while sweetness has lost to intense power and concentration. There is a flavor of toast, of dark toffee leaving a rich, almost dry aftertaste.——R.V.(5/1/2007)—— 93
