Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Refereshing and summery with aromas of strawberry, melon and cherry. Light bodied on the palate with medium acidity, a balance of tart and ripe berry flavours and some orangey citrus notes. Enjoy with salmon or pork dishes.
