RATINGS

96The Wine Advocate

In the mouth it manages to retain startingly juicy fresh pit fruit & citrus character to harmoniously accompany layers of incipiently carmalized pit fruit and honey. the balance and layered complexity of this wine is poised and elegant...

93Vinous / IWC

Subtle aromas of yellow plum, apricot and acacia honey, with a hint of smoky botrytis. Intense, juicy peach stone fruit and saline citricity keep this rather honeyed wine bright.
