Limpid yellow. Ripe pear, Meyer lemon, vanilla and smoky minerals on the deeply perfumed nose, along with hints of jasmine and candied ginger that build in the background. Supple and well-concentrated, offering expansive citrus and orchard fruit flavors complemented by brioche and toasty lees nuances. The floral note repeats emphatically on the very long, supple finish, which is energized by a jolt of zesty acidity. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, Feb 2018)

Green apple citrus, slight pear and alcoholic notes, maybe a little nutmeg or cinnamon on the nose, with a brandy like delivery. Medium bodied on a golden hues body with a slight greening to the rim. The palate is similar, with a Calvados or brandy like presence, with prominent pear, baked apple, and a slight spicy around the gums, with a little crème brûlée on the finish.
