RATINGS

92Wine Spectator

An opulent white, with a creamy texture enveloping butterscotch, pineapple and vanilla flavors. Powerful and fleshy yet remains balanced in a broad-shouldered way, with light tannins gracing the finish.

92-94Vinous / IWC

...subtle, nuanced bouquet of apple blossom and wet limestone aromas infused with touches of yellow flowers. The palate is well balanced, displaying a fine bead of acidity, and rounded on the entry, offering light passion fruit and dried mango notes. This segues into a more spicy final third and a fine saline finish.

91-93+ The Wine Advocate

Notes of pear, hazelnuts, white flowers, yellow apple and buttered toast...medium to full-bodied, layered and textural wine that's mineral and incisive, with bright acids and a saline finish.

17Jancis Robinson

High-toned, lively nose. Very good blend of ripe fruit and acidity – the acidity is definitely more pronounced in this wine than in some others but there is no shortage of ripe fruit either. Quite long and really fresh.
