91 Josh Raynolds - Vinous Media"(45% pinot Meunier, 25% pinot noir and 25% chardonnay, with the rest arbanne, Petit Meslier and fromenteau; disgorged in April 2013): Bright straw. Pungent aromas of Meyer lemon, pear, and fig, with a gingery accent adding lift. Sappy, penetrating citrus fruit and floral flavors are given a refreshingly bitter character by notes of pear skin and peach pit, with a waxy note coming up on the back half. A smoky nuance lingers on the finish, which shows very good clarity and length. Fifty-five percent of this blend is from 2010 and the rest is reserve wines, mostly from a solera that was begun in 1998."
