Wine Spectator
Lots of caramel and apple aromas follow through to a full-bodied palate, with medium sweetness and a long finish. All in finesse. Score range: 89-91

James Suckling
Another fully mature wine from this producer, but there’s nice creaminess and positive, marzipan character on the palate. An appealing balance at the long finish.
Bob Campbell MW - The Real Review
Moderately botrytised Sauternes with honey, toasted nut and musk flavours. Semillon varietal character is evident. Only moderately sweet with a reasonably dry-ish finish. Has the character of Sauternes but lacks the intensity and complexity of superior Sauternes.
Roger Voss - Wine Enthusiast
86-88 Barrel sample. This is packed with dry botrytis, plenty of spice and new wood. It's somewhat simple and obvious at this stage, as it needs more layers of flavors. In time, however, it should develop.
Roger Voss - Wine Enthusiast
Fresh in color, this characteristic continues with the fresh, citrus and bright apricot palate. The honey and dry botrytis elements of Sauternes are there, but everything is fresh, a wine dancing in the mouth.
