Deep gold; a delicious mixture of ripe stone fruit, pear and honey riding on a magic carpet of natural acidity. If you are prepared to gamble with the cork gods, go to it. (12/ 2011)
The 2002 ‘1927 Vines’ Marsanne offers fragrant notes of cashews, preserved lemon peel, lemongrass and acacia honey with a gentle hint of orange blossom essence. Light-bodied and dry, with a fine line of refreshing acidity cutting through the evolved earthy and dried citrus peel flavors, it has a long, layered finish. Delicious now, it should keep to 2017+.
91+ points Neal Martin: "Tasted at the 150th anniversary vertical at St. John. This is beautifully defined on the nose with honeysuckle, dried flowers, a touch of green lemon and the mineralite really showing through with aeration. The palate is well balanced, very primal, light dried honey, dried mango, a little spice and honeycomb, very introverted towards the finish. Moderate length. Very fine. Drink 2015-2035. Tasted May 2010." (09/10)
