Allen Meadows - Score: 92-94 (2014 Jun.)

A cooler, more elegant and higher-toned if not necessarily more complex nose puts on display lemon-lime, mineral-reduction, green apple and dried floral hints. There is a wonderful sense of purity and transparency to the detailed, intense and explosive middle weight flavors that possess excellent mid-palate concentration and strikingly good persistence on the impeccably well-balanced finish. A potentially outstanding Coche Perrières.
