95 points James Suckling: "This has a strong autolysis influence, showing almond nougat, light red fruit and toasted brioche. The palate is richly flavored and smooth but compressed, the mushroom and earthy sous-bois flavors gliding along seamlessly. Savory style. A blend of 70 per cent pinot noir and 30 per cent chardonnay with ten years on lees. Drink now. (9/3/19)"
94 points Wine Spectator: "Sleek and well-knit, this exudes a lovely nose of ripe fruit and roasted nut, layered with flavors of poached apricot, pickled ginger and crystalized honey on the finely detailed palate. A pronounced streak of salinity and racy acidity define the lingering finish. Disgorged July 2017. Drink now through 2028. 125 cases imported. (12/15/18)"
