Jasper Morris, 90-93 Points 

"Pale lemon, a little fresh wax on the nose, a good weight of fruit but as always with Maltroie, you have to go in search a bit. Taken from barrel so the wood shows a little more but it is well integrated."

Burghound, 90-93 Points

"(from Maltroie proper). There is whiff of the exotic lurking in the background of the aromas of white and yellow peach, dried apricot and passion fruit. The medium-bodied and beautifully textured flavors are rich to the point of opulence though not so much that the borderline tannic and strikingly persistent finish is unduly top heavy. Maltroie tends to be precocious and consistent with that, this wine should mature relatively quickly. Drink: 2026+. *Outstanding*"

Alcohol: 13.5%
