Acclaim
“Litchi, pineapple and cantaloupe flavors infuse this wine’s oak presence, filling out the light tannins with substantial fruit. It’s honeyed and full, ready to take on grilled chicken or pork with a fruity salsa.”
— Wine & Spirits, Jun 2021
“Bright yellow. Ripe pit fruits, melon, lemon pith and a hint of nuttiness on the nose and in the mouth. Fleshy, open-knit and ready to drink, with a round, pliant finish that features a touch of honey.”
— Vinous, Apr 2021
