Erin Larkin, RobertParker.com "Acid is prodigious, as usual with this cuvée, but in 2021, it only serves to further accentuate the crushed pistachio/rosewater, white peach and Golden Delicious apples in the mouth...my suggestion would be to hold this for several years. Your patience will be amply rewarded."
