86 - Connoisseur's Guide to California Wine - Sept. 2007

“Medium-concentration aromas of apples and rich oak run into a surprising green apple streak that somewhat belies the openness of the first nose. But, despite that later aromatic element, there is nothing about the wine's impact in the mouth that is anything other than full, fleshy and fairly inviting..."
