Wine Advocate 89 Points
A middle of the road Tawny, this is beautifully balanced but with enough grip on the finish to seem serious andinteresting as time goes on. Lingering nicely on the flavorful finish, its elegance makes it easy to drink while thefinish makes it very tasty. This has a bar top cork and was bottled in March 2015. 89 Points, MS.
