Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Aromas of green apple, lime, and pear with notes of wet stone minerality. Light bodied and refreshing on the palate, with lovely vibrant citrus, mouthwatering acidity, and a stony mineral finish. Pair with oysters or any shellfish.
