BUY THE WINE

Neil Beckett: Light to mid-gold, good reflet. Muted nose, a little inexpressive now, light quince and vanilla. Full-bodied, rich, with very good intensity of fully ripe (not overripe) fruit, but enough balancing acidity underneath and sheer concentration of flavor to hold its shape. Long, generous, harmonious finish. Heady, immediate, pleasurable. 16.5
