Fragrant for sure, with lovely floral and pine notes. The apple and pear fruit snaps and pops across your palate, dealing clean flavors and cleansing acids in abundance. The finish is compact, and thus everything is in its proper place. A nicely done wine with all parts melded and working in unison. In a word, it’s complete. Best Buy. ——M.S.(9/1/2003)—— 89
