Wine Advocate-Parker :
The 2005 Rotenberg leads with honey, candied citrus peel, orange blossom, vanilla, and peach preserves. Even more overtly creamy and densely chalky on the palate than the 2004, it doesn't - at least today - exhibit anywhere near the sort of clarity or finishing authority. Revisit this imposingly rich wine in another couple of years. Either of these current Rotenberg bottling should mature positively for at least 5-7 years, but without a long track record for these particular blends, that estimate must count as speculative.
