Fresh and clean with aromas of green apples, white grapefruit and gooseberries. It’s focused and linear with a medium body, bright acidity and nicely restrained citrus fruit. - James Suckling, 90 pts
Lemon in color, this wine has a nose of chalk-frosted, fresh green apple, white nectarine, quince and lemon zest. The palate has lively acidity that refreshes and continues through to the end of the taste along with a tinge of field herbs. Pair with quiche, scrambled eggs, poultry and other white meats. - Wine Enthusiast, 90 pts
