Wine Enthusiast 90 points - Bouquet offers aromas of salty brine, fennel and green peppercorn; in time, a dried-sage aroma takes command, with assistance from burnt match and metallic notes of lead, rust, nickel. Palate entry is vegetal-herbal, but semisweet and oily; the midpalate is sweet, buttery, fatty and intensely peppery. - Paul (5/1/2004) - 90-95: Superb/Highly Recommended.May/2004
Ultimate Beverage Challenge 94 points - Sweet vanilla flecked green grass is bright and playful on the nose. A full, soft and pillowy texture has a mild green pineapple flavor. The finish offers notes of mineral water that is clean and refreshing. - 2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge (Excellent, Highly Recommended) (Great Value).April/2019
