Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Nov/Dec 06
($130; LLEVHF00036) Brassy gold. Powerful, pungent, complex, lightly oxidative bouquet of toasty lees, apple butter, peach nectar, cured meat and dried rose. Full and chewy, with decadent dried fruit and nut flavors accented by deeper toffee and caramel tones. There's surprising energy here, and subtle lift to the flavors. Almost sweet on the long, toasty finish, with a persistent note of marzipan. I'd drink this now. 92 points
