RATINGS

93James Suckling

This has such a floral, fragrant and perfumed nose with sliced-pear and melon aromas, as well as very fresh, fleshy flavors on the palate. This has such a pure, gently honeyed, pear and melon-flavored palate. Refined and refreshing.

90Wine Enthusiast

...intensely perfumed, a heady, musky combo of flower blossoms, peach cobbler, orange zest and ginger. The medium-weight palate is powdery in texture with a lovely freshness.
