Ratings & Reviews:

92 Points - Vinous Media:
"Bright silver-straw. High-pitched aromas of lemon, dusty minerals and white flowers are given a spicy edge by a subtle ginger overtone. Vibrant and sharply focused on the palate, offering juicy citrus and orchard fruit flavors that deepen slowly through the midpalate. The incisive, impressively persistent finish shows intense stoniness and leaves behind bitter citrus pith and quinine notes." - Josh Raynolds ( Feb 2018)

92 Points - Wine Enthusiast:

"This estate-grown Riesling is bursting with juicy flavors of Meyer lemon and pink grapefruit. Tangy acids keep it fresh and lively throughout a long finish. It's simply delicious now, and fine for drinking through 2027." - Paul Gregutt (December 2017)
