Tasting Notes
Brilliant straw yellow with a green shimmer. Quite pronounced and expressive aroma with flowery and somewhat spicy notes. Lively, precise, with a slight smokiness at the back and a good, fresh finish.
Ratings & Reviews
90 Points - James Suckling:"Effusive citrus aromas that range from lemon blossom to kumquat, plus a hint of flint. A light and juicy chardonnay with appealing, Alpine freshness. Very clean and harmonious finish. From organically grown grapes." (Jun 2022)
