RATINGS

94Burghound.com

...sea breeze, iodine, green fruit and lemon rind suffused nose... supple yet precise... a study in restraint... cool minerality and wonderful sense of underlying tension... A textbook Valmur.

93The Wine Advocate

Green tea, musky narcissus, gentian, chalk and oyster liqueur suffuse a palate generously juicy with fresh grapefruit and lemon, leading to a finish at once soothing and stimulating not to mention utterly intriguing and compelling...

93Stephen Tanzer

Ripe pineapple, grapefruit and mineral... Rich, broad and large-scaled but youthfully backward with excellent intensity to the flavors of ripe apple, citrus peel and flowers. Finishes stylish and quite dry with a subtle whiplash of fruit...
