With its full-blown Burgundian treatment, this seems very oaky at first, but underneath are clearly defined, compacted, pure fruit, spice and herb flavors--pear, mango, lemon, lime, cilantro--that build to a powerful, refreshing, silky finish."(92pts) Provenance: The Art of Collecting: Fifty-three lots from a successful international restaurateur, who ranks among the world’s most important fine art collectors and approaches wine with the same trained eye.
