Professional Reviews & Awards
4.5 Stars - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit 2021
By Sam KimDelightfully fruited and elegantly fragrant, the wine shows ripe peach, green pear, fig and subtle spice notes on the nose, followed by a juicy palate offering ripe fruit intensity combined with fine texture and bright acidity, making it instantly appealing.
Premium - Cameron Douglas Master Sommelier 2021
By Cameron DouglasFragrant, fruity and varietal bouquet with aromas of yellow apple and nashi pear, white stone fruits and green pear skin. Supple, satin textures on the palate with a refreshing acid line then flavours that reflect the bouquet with a touch of mineral and floral. Balanced, fresh, lively and ready. Best drinking from purchase day through 2024
