Score 91-94/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jul 2006
(just a half-barrel made) Superripe aromas of pear, minerals and clove spice. Lush, rich and broad but very dry, with superb volume and strong spice character. Very backward wine that's most impressive today on the saline, chewy finish, which features a flavor of crushed stone.
