11/18/2011 - Retil wrote: 91 pointshas become an outstanding wine. At 7 years it's showing it's depth. Richer yellow not yet gold, a floral nose which is no longer subtle as I described at my last tasting in 2007. A freshness with good balance still with a hint of sweet apple perhaps even a touch of apricot. Long finish. Beautifully paired with a salad of salmon and quinoa. |
