5 Stars
By Sam Kim, Wine OrbitGorgeously aromatic with green rockmelon, crunchy apple, white floral and lime zest aromas, it's succulent and vibrant on the palate displaying youthful fruit intensity and fine texture backed by crisp acidity, finishing lingering and delectable. At its best: now to 2025.
