RATINGS

93The Wine Advocate

...lovely, unwinding in the glass with notes of citrus zest and pear mingled with hints of white flowers, bread dough and wheat toast. Medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with racy acids and a fine-boned, elegant profile, it concludes with a long, saline finish.

93Wine Spectator

This white evokes earth and stone flavors, along with peach, lemon and spice notes. Dense, with light tannins emerging on the butterscotch finish. A bit rigid now, yet vibrant and long.

17Jancis Robinson

Really quite lithe, with lemon-delineated, softly baked apple and a little oak spice. Lovely lively acidity and freshness.
