Score 18/20 · Drink 2003-2008, Jancis Robinson MW, Jan 2003
Quite deep green gold. Some honeyed character on the nose, though bone dry on the palate. Some nuttiness. No ill effects of age. A little noble rot in this vintage and the grapes were picked on several different passes through the vineyard. Grapefruit character and slightly astringent. (JR)
