Ratings & Reviews
90 Points - Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
"This appellation is sometimes overlooked, but for white wines it is star. This is a ripe, full wine, toasty from wood aging and with rich apricot fruit cut by lemon acidity. It is balanced, full of fruitiness and will be ready to drink from 2019." - Roger Voss (6/1/2018)
89 Points - Wine Spectator Magazine:
"A sleek, lime-tinged white, with grace notes of spice and mineral. Stays lively and lingers on the finish. Well-balanced, in a linear style. Drink now through 2020. 100 cases imported." – BS (Web Only - 2017)
