Grande Dame Syme

95 Points Candice Chow for Raymon Chan "Bright, even, pale yellow gold. Fine and consistent bead. The nose is gently rich, with aromas of dried apricot, cooked lemon, lilac, brioche and brown butter. Medium-full bodied, aromas of dried apricot, lemon preserve, grapefruit zest, entwined withbiscuit, brioche and brown butter. The fruit is elegant with a strong citrus core. Soften, enlivening acidity carries the wine with precision, reflecting a subtle chalky mouthfeel that yearns for more. This prestige blend is matured with delicate complexity and quiet power, extending a lengthy, lifted finish."
