Beautiful and young, rewarding in every aspect. It shows bright, ripe Meyer lemon marmalade, apricot preserve, nectarine butter and guava flavors, with an exotic array of tropical spices and an elaborate coating of caramelized, vanilla-infused oak. It’s also clean in citrusy acids. A bit tight now, so decant, and don’t serve too cold. Best now–2010. Editors’ Choice.——S.H.(4/1/2007)—— 94

One of a back-to-back pair of strong performances from Foley, this wine opens with well-defined herb, caramel and cream nose. Ripe apple and toasted oak flavors round out the rich, buttery palate. The citrus and peach finish goes on forever. Shows complexity, but with a straight-ahead style that make it a real pleaser. Great now.——W.E.(7/1/2001)—— 91
