WineSpectator Review:
Like liquid candy, this is a mouthful of apricot, quince, coconut, honey and smoke flavors matched to a thick texture and vibrant structure. Despite the concentration, it melts in the mouth, as the acidity takes over from the initial sweetness. Incredibly long butterscotch aftertaste. Drink now through 2025.
Tanzer Review:
Medium gold. Knockout nose shows roasted aromas of apricot, marzipan, caramel and smoke. Wonderfully viscous wine with extraordinary ripeness the superripe marzipan note repeats in the mouth. Amazingly, the flinty quality of the vineyard comes through, even at this extreme level of ripeness. Firmedged, even a bit youthfully aggressive on the finish. If the Jebsal is like a sweet dessert today, this is more rigorous.
Other Reviews:
The ultimate in SGN wines, because it not only has richness, sweetness, and botrytis, but it also offers acidity, balance and total seduction. There are flavors of peaches and mirabelles, but they are really all submerged in the amazing elegance of a wine that will age indefinitely. 97 points Wine Enthusiast
