93 NM. "Tasted at Hermitage Wines’ seminar in Hong Kong. A consistent note compared to the one earlier this year. It has a mature bouquet with mandarin, tangerine, orange rind, lanolin and dried honey that lacks sweetness but is very well defined. The palate is beautifully balanced and fresh with quince and orange rind, a touch of honeycomb towards the long finish that seems dry when compared to the more extravagant 2001. Certainly, this is the best Suduiraut of the decade." Neal Martin, Wine Journal, Jan 2012 |
