RATINGS

94The Wine Advocate

...beautifully defined with hints of melted butter and almond flakes. The palate is fresh and crisp on the entry with lime zest and citrus peel. It is wonderfully focused with a precise, tender, mineral-rich finish.

94Wine Spectator

A powerful white, showing more intensity than weight, evoking melon, peach, lemon and wet stone flavors. Reveals an element of spice, coming together on the mouthwatering finish, with a long, toasty aftertaste.

92-95Burghound.com

...interesting nose of both white and yellow orchard fruit aromas along with a broad range of floral and spice elements. There is seriously good mid-palate density to the big-bodied and overtly powerful flavors that possess stunning punch on the very dry and hugely long finish where the only slight nit is a hint of warmth.
