Honeyed and nutty on the nose, this appears at first sniff to be very ripe and rich. And the palate follows through, delivering waves of fabulously rich fruit that miraculously don’t seem heavy. A marvel.——J.C.(9/1/2007)—— 95

From 50-year-old vines, this is Sorrel’s top cuvee of white Hermitage, laden with scents of truffled honey and almonds. Yet despite that obvious richness on the nose, it’s a bit more restrained on the palate than the 2005, with a more powerful structure and marginally less lushness. Not better, not worse, just different: longer on the finish, more tightly constructed and probably longer-lived.——J.C.(9/1/2007)—— 95
