RATINGS

92Vinous / IWC

...rich mix of dusty dried flowers, nuances of brioche and gingery spice. Silken beads of fine bubbles splash across the palate as saline tension builds and crisp orchard fruits swirl throughout. The finish is beautifully clean, crisp and fresh yet long, leaving a gentle tinge of brown spice.
