- 90pts – Wine & Spirits Magazine, Feb 2009
- “This ripe wine has an herbal scent, with notes of chervil and white flowers. Its passion fruit flavor has a hint of lees, and complexity that remains poised and finely rendered.”

- “Intense, with dried apricot and orange notes that stay racy and mouthwatering, along with a sweet backing of maple and candied citrus peel flavors. Good length. Drink now through 2010.”
- 97 –Wine Enthusiast, Dec 2007
- “With its aromas of citrus & honey & its exuberant flavors of tropical fruit & toasted spice, this is both pretty & playful. Sweet but full of finesse, the wine has floral element that adds to its allure.”
