95 points Falstaff Guide: "Medium amber, gold reflections. Floral nuances of nutmeg and honey, ripe peach, a delicate bouquet. Juicy, sweet and powerful, fine dried fruit nuances, again intense peach, long lasting, it can take the place of any fruit dessert, and has sure further aging potential. (Feb 2016)"
94 points Wine Spectator: "This offers a wide range of blood orange marmalade, apricot, peach and mango notes all tightly stitched together but unfurling steadily through the opulent finish, picking up nectarine, kumquat and ginger notes. And then there's a racy feel echoing at the very end, giving this lovely lift. A beauty. Muscat de Frontignan. Drink now through 2035. 350 cases made, 100 cases imported. (09/30/16)."
93 points Decanter: "The 2011 is a deep gold with a gorgeously concentrated nose. On the palate, it is vibrantly fresh and sweet, with intense mouth-filling flavours of apricot, zesty orange peel, marmalade, honey, spice and ginger. Despite 152 g/L of residual sugar, the wine’s bright and judiciously balanced acidity ensures focus and a long, clean finish. Drink 2015-2030."
93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2011 Vin de Constance Natural Sweet Wine spent 36 months in 60% new French and Hungarian oak. It delivers 152 grams per liter residual sugar with a pH of 3.6. Here it is very perfumed with a dried honey, lanolin, marmalade and melted wax-scented bouquet that is nicely defined. The palate is viscous on the entry with fine acidity, quite sensual in the mouth with orange zest and marmalade notes, almost Barsac-like towards the finish that lingers long in the mouth. Gorgeous (as per usual). Drink 2016-2035. (11/29/15)."
