RATINGS

91Vinous / IWC

Aromas of Meyer lemon, pear and smoky minerals take on a floral nuance with air. Densely packed but lively as well, showing very good concentration to the mineral-laced citrus and orchard fruit flavors. Delivers a deft blend of heft and energy and finishes tangy and long, displaying lingering mineral and honeysuckle qualities.

90The Wine Advocate

Featuring ripe red apple and Meyer lemon with creamy yogurt and touches of toast and spice...medium to full-bodied with a delicately creamy texture, great apple and citrus flavors in the mouth with a frame of refreshing acidity and finishing long and toasty.
