RATINGS

95James Suckling

Such attractive lemon and yellow grapefruit with gently pithy notes, as well as wet stones. Impressive purity and floral-perfumed allure. The palate has length, finesse and density. Elegant fruit, in the lemon and white-peach zone, and a fresh, sustained finish.

94Vinous / IWC

Tropical fruit, exotic white flowers and orchard fruit are some of the notes that build in this super-expressive, resonant Chardonnay from Littorai.

16.5Jancis Robinson

Nicely balanced but with the merest hint of pineapple. Good grip on the end and real vitality.
