90-92 AM. "This is a wine built on its minerality from stem to stern and it's also one stunningly elegant wine with an extremely pure red berry fruit nose nuanced by an intense stoniness that continues on the admirably precise, intense and delicious middle weight flavors that are, stylistically speaking, much like the Blanches Fleurs in that there is a tremendous punch packed into a barely medium weight package, all wrapped in a wonderfully long and moderately austere finish (which is by the way spot on picture perfect young Pitures). Terrific." Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, Apr 2009 |
