Professional Reviews & Awards
Premium - Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier
By Cameron Douglas MSThere’s gentle onion skin hue to this wine reflect the pink skin of the variety at harvest and a touch of skin contact. Aromas include fresh bosc pear and a apple, white roses and a quiet silty minerality. On the palate - fresh, fruity centric and just dry with a core of white fleshed orchard fruits with a lite citrus note. Silky textures, medium+ acidity and a lengthy balanced finish. Well made and ready to drink upon purchase and through summer 2022.
5 Stars - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
By Sam Kim, Wine OrbitOffering gorgeous fruit purity and elegance, the wine shows nectarine, rockmelon, fresh pear and white floral aromas on the nose, followed by a succulent palate that delivers terrific fruit concentration within a framed of silky texture and refreshing acidity. Delectably appealing.
