September 5, 2013 - Reflective of the miserable growing season that was 2012, this year's edition shows less depth, less fruit and more pyrazines than is the norm for this producer. Still, it has attractive herbal qualities and its characteristic acidity, but compared to the glories of the 2011, it is somewhat lacking.
