90 points
Healthy pale yellow color. Good verve to the aromas and flavors of peach, orange zest and gingery spices. Suave and fine-grained, showing attractive spicy lift and intensity to the middle palate. Rather classic and minerally for the vintage, not to mention nicely concentrated. Precise and fine for the year.
