Judges Selection [GFW23]

2023 Global Fine Wine Challenge

88 | hints of oatmeal cracked open, accessible --drink now. easy & uncomplicated finish

86 | Ripe stone fruit + citrus but also some spicy, vanilla characters. An odd approach to riesling - oak sits on top of the fruit. Curious

86 | Beautifully expressive. Lots of orange peel, monstera deliciosa and ripe lemon. The palate is very dry and a touch bitter.

88 | Edgy VA lift with butterscotch toffee, palate seems dry, richer and bigger style, Perhaps some barrel input? Pretty dry. Slight hardness. Lacks riesling aromatics.
