Wine Enthusiast: "A soft, almond-flavored wine packed with sweet strawberries. There is good acidity balanced by some caramel and softness, which make this a good bet as an apéritif wine." From 100% Pinot Noir.

93 points Robert Parker: "This superb 2008 exhibits lots of fig, honeysuckle, orange zest and lemon butter notes. It should drink well for 15-20 years. (May 2011)"
92 points Wine Enthusiast: "A beautifully balanced wine, its acidity and green fruits, slipping easily into a more intense pear and apricot character. The tang comes back with the citrus on the finish. (Apr 2011)"
90 points Wine Spectator: "Pretty flavors of peach and beeswax are accented by grapefruit and green almond notes in this lively, medium-bodied white, with bright acidity and a fresh, minerally finish. Not complex, but delivers a lovely purity. Drink now through 2016. (4/30/11)"

91 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "Pale orange-gold. High-pitched aromas of orange blossom, pineapple, pink grapefruit, peach, honey, marzipan and spices offer lovely musky lift. Racy and delineated, with excellent intensity to the juicy flavors of pineapple, peach and spices; this boasts an excellent tight core of fruit. Quite sweet but wonderfully juicy, and not at all an unctuous style. This very shapely, energetic wine is one of the liveliest 2006s I've tasted to date. (Jun 2009)"
90 points Robert Parker: "[$50 list] Medium gold with an impressive nose of creme brulee, smoky oak, caramelized pineapples and other tropical fruits, this wine is relatively big, impressively built, and long and rich in the mouth. It is quite sweet, but the acidity is there, as is the structure. This should obviously age for 25 or more years. (Feb 2009)"
90 points Wine Spectator: "Aromas of lemon curd, honey and licorice follow through to a full body, with medium sweetness and a subtle, racy, spicy finish. Best after 2011. (2009)"

*SPECIAL: Take 10% Off Listed Price!
(We'll reduce item's price when processing your order.) Producer notes: "Comprised of barrels selected out of both old (planted in 1973) and younger (planted in 1999) blocks at Bien Nacido. This year’s cuvee comes from mostly old vines from the western edge of the vineyard where there is more clay and a few younger blocks to the east where there is more shale and gravel over the loam. I believe the clay gives the wine more plushness and acidity, and the shale/gravel its minerality. Forest floor, Mandarin orange, spice, chalky tannin. 149 cases produced. Alcohol 13.5%."
Not yet reviewed; 2010 vintage rated 91 points and 'Outstanding' by Allen Meadows (Burghound): "A beautifully spicy nose evidences a touch of sandalwood along with hints of red cherry and raspberry. The palate impression is lush to the point of opulence yet the middle weight flavors retain a good sense of verve as well as fine acid/fruit balance on the intense and solidly persistent finish. This is lovely and while it could certainly be approached now, it will be better with a few years of cellar time. Drink: 2015+."
