Tasting Notes
Notes of singed caramel, over-ripe nectarines, a distinct roasted character Elegant and silky texture. Soft, evolved nutty nuances and exotic flavors including dried dates and peaches, and sweet pecan pie. The finish has exceptional length and is imbued with a stylish interplay of tropical fruit and caramelized nuttiness that lingers beautifully. Robert Parker notes from Mark Squires: “The style here is acidity and complexity. The tawnies eschew fruitiness in favor of complexity, making even the 10 seem older than it is. Not everyone will prefer that style, but I loved it. It gave these some distinction. Often, they exceeded their categories.”
