It's very good. But to be totally honest there is a factor of: "yay I did it- check it off the list" but I've tasted wines for far less $$ and cool-factor that match up better against it. But nobody leaves a drop in the glass in your right mind! The co$t has to be considered when giving a rating. — 11 years ago

Nutty, spicy, some oak, ripe complexity more associated in my mind with aged white burgundy than champagne, honey, tannic structure, big and flavorful but balanced with lots of acidity. No question it's showy, but it manages to be really drinkable and delicious despite its over-the-top heft. — 12 years ago

Wow. Dense. Jancis's comment about the 2000 (or was it 03) Pavie " "Port"? comes to mind. Maybe, maybe this wine will eventually, someday, somehow, after many, many, long, arduous years begin to possibly open up. Or maybe not! 😜 — 10 years ago
