critic reviews

94/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous

Pale yellow-straw color. Sexy nose melds fresh pineapple, stone and musky quinine. Large-scaled and showy, with superb fruit intensity and a sweet, tangy quality to the flavors of lemon, lime, pineapple and quinine. A huge and superripe wine with superb building length. This has the balance for extended aging and may well shut down in the bottle. Philippe wanted to harvest these vines early but his father Joseph wanted to wait-like he did in '59, said Philippe. In the end, the last batches of fruit came in with potential alcohol of 15% but no rot.
