RATINGS

93Wine Spectator

Bright yellow apple, peach and pear flavors mingle here, with a creamy texture and a finish that glistens with honeysuckle and quinine notes. Offers lovely purity and length.

92Vinous / IWC

...intense bouquet of dried honey, light tropical fruit (mango and a hint of pineapple) and a touch of white peach. The palate is well balanced with a spicy opening, very good weight, subtle tropical notes and just the right amount of salinity on the finish. Excellent!

91James Suckling

Dried apricots, melon drops, vanilla, spices, cloves and nutmeg. Medium body, pretty acidity and a zesty finish.

TYPE
