96 Points James Halliday
Glowing yellow-green; the invariably complex array of aromas with tangy fruit, spicy lemony oak and some slightly unexpected florals. In the mouth, the ultimate in richness and complexity, with layer upon layer of flavour built in the style of the best French Sauternes, finished with excellent balancing acidity. Drink to 2002.

"Lifted nectarines and peach aromas are displayed. Fruit flavours of mango and paw paw are evident on the palate. Very sweet and luscious with a lovely balance of tropical fruits. Long and complex with a lovely showing of oak balance."
