RATINGS

92Vinous / IWC

...a lovely bouquet with dried pineapple, linden and just a touch of lime cordial... The palate is well balanced with a fresh line of acidity, a touch of sour lemon lending edginess and a chalky texture towards the linear but sustained finish. Excellent.

91-93The Wine Advocate

It has a clean and pure bouquet with subtle scents of lychee, citrus peel and minerals... The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, a slightly waxy texture, very focused with hints of peach skin and spice on the finish.

...a whiff of the exotic present on the overtly floral aromas of white peach, melon and lychee...good volume to the plump and round medium-bodied flavors that exhibit a subtle minerality on the nicely focused finale that offers acceptable depth and persistence.

16.5Jancis Robinson

Substantial and creamy-textured. Sweet start with a blossomy overlay... Very charming.
