97 points James Halliday (Wine Companion): "A stellar viognier. A wine that fans of the northern Rhone, such as myself, increasingly hold in great esteem. A complete understanding of the physiological tendencies of the variety is apparent: a salubrious texture. Unafraid of viscosity, weight and phenolics. Then, the aroma! Apricot, orange blossom, cumquat, honeysuckle and crystalline ginger. Long, slippery and yet not out of hand. A gentle chew and impeccable oak management reining it all in across the seams. Very fine. Drink By: 2025. (Aug 2020)"

93 points James Suckling: "A very direct, apricot, pear and white-peach nose with a strong, stone-fruit focus and some nutty notes. The palate has a very succulent feel with boldly fleshy, mouth-filling presence. Creamy and long. Flamboyant. Drink now. (9/11/20)"
