James Suckling: “Lots of white flowers with fresh and dried apples plus hints of bread dough and Asian pears. Medium- to full-bodied with density, velvety texture and a very dry finish. Flavorful and slightly bitter with richness, structure and class. 2016 base wine with reserve wine from 2014. Drink or hold.”
