RATINGS

96The Wine Advocate

...riot of herbal aromas... ...grapefruit and passion fruit... ...Horehound, licorice, sage, mint, black tea, nut oils, candied grapefruit rind, and crushed stone inform a silken-textured palate...

94Wine Spectator

Balanced and ripe, delivering concentrated peach, nectarine and white plum flavors that are rich and well-spiced. Very ethereal on the finish, with long, vibrant notes of mineral and sea salt...

91+ Vinous / IWC

...A discreet but intense apricot flavor rises from the mid-palate, accompanied by a subtle acidity. Animated, finely spiced spatlese with a deep, long finish. I may be underrating this.

18Jancis Robinson

Lift and interest on the nose with great exuberance. Lots of richness! Amazing length. Bitter grapefruit with a hint of passion fruit. It’s all on the finish!

White Wine, Riesling, Spätlese

This white variety originated in Germany. It’s known for its strong flowery aromas and high acidity. Please note Rieslings can have dramatic differences as the grape can be used to make dry, semi-sweet, sweet and sparkling wines.
