The Durell vineyard is so distinct, it would certainly be ranked as a Premier Cru if California had such designations. The bouquet is bursting with aromas of tropical fruit, grilled pineapple, and white peach. The palate is rich and opulent, with full layers of lemon cream, green apple, butterscotch, and toasted pastry. Durrell s classic minerality balances the fruit, increasing the level of complexity. Superb now, this wine will benefit with a few years in the cellar and will last for another 8-10 years.
