POINTS
“Pure, mineral and incisive nose with limey, chalky character to the green-apple and citrus aromas. The palate is fresh and more supple, with a medium-to full-bodied frame to the generous citrus fruit. Zesty finish.”
James Suckling

POINTS
“White spring blossom and Granny Smith apple aromas take center stage. The green apple aroma follows through to the crisp palate along with cantaloupe before a bitter almond close.”
Wine Enthusiast

POINTS
“A juicy, balanced white, with pretty white blossom, spice and graphite notes accenting ripe, moist pear and apple fruit.”
