Acclaim
“Alpine hay, white stone fruit and botanical herb aromas shape the nose. The creamy, enjoyable palate offers yellow pear, acacia honey and beeswax alongside mild acidity before a citrusy close.”
— Wine Enthusiast, Aug 2021
“This juicy and immediately appealing pinot grigio has plenty of white-fruit and floral aromas, plus nice, citrusy freshness on the light body. Very polished.”
— James Suckling, May 2021
