Rating: 91/100 - As reviewed by International Wine Cellar in Issue 126, May/June 2006 (bottled in February) Pale color. Sexy aromas of lemon drop and smoky oak, with a resiny note. Fat and rich in the mouth, with flavors of apple, minerals and spicy, vanillin oak. This is showing a sweetness and pliancy of texture in bottle that I did not find a year ago in barrel, but there's also a sensation of firm spine.
