"This is a wine that seems to be incapable of failing! Probably the most eminent wine of this vintage. Not in any way great or forward, no no, rather an unobtrusive scent of spring, yet with such aristocratic deportment that all the subtleties become conspicuously distinct and discernible. The streak of wild strawberry, the white chocolate, the exotic pink scent of orchids, that magical, whirling pearl necklace mousse and the long strawberry toffee finish all taken together make it possible for one just to lean back and enjoy one of the most seductive wines on this earth."
