Tasting Notes

***#21 TOP 100 CELLAR SELECTIONS 2019***
Orange blossom, Mandarin skin and jasmine create a beguiling perfume on the nose of this wine. The palate immediately convinces, with lemon zestiness that counters and accompanies the aromatic riches. Orange zest, more summer blossom and even saltiness take turns to dazzle on this aromatic marvel of a wine. A creamy element accentuates and unites the freshness of the aromatic strands. Drink 2020–2035.

Anne Krebiehl MW, Wine Enthusiast, January 2019

Passion fruit, dried pineapple, guava peel and apple rind are only part of the wide variety of aromas on offer here. Medium-bodied with some attractive, oily sweetness and a healthy complement of crunchy acidity. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.

James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, August 2019

Bright lemon in colour with an open and powerful, musky nose of grapes and honeyed fruits. The palate reigns in this ripeness with notes of fresh mint and a pithy, saline edge. This is precise, savoury and dry on the palate, all yellow fruit. Cool, mineral and chalky on the finish.
Notes: 12% abv, Indice 1.
