Wine Spectator
"92 pts ... This delivers wonderful depth and purity to flavors of lemon curd, yellow apple, Meyer lemon and apricot. Aromatic, with lanolin, honeycomb and floral notes, a terrific silky texture and wonderful acidity. Drink now through 2015." --12/10
Winemaker's Notes
"The wine shows the typical ripe peach fruit we expect from this site and this year we see even more depth and structure in the wine. The palate is forward with a luxurious creamy texture and lovely balancing acidity. This wine, while delicious in its youth, will benefit from a period of bottle maturation of two to four years."
