Critics Ratings
'This lip-smacking version is framed by laserlike acidity, and while a streak of salinity, a pure note of ripe white cherry and flavors of slivered almond, mandarin orange peel and ground ginger are expressive, this austere style calls out for food to shine. 333 cases made.' - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (Oct 2016)
