2022 Global Fine Wine Challenge

92 | Intense lemon hue, fine bead. Forward toasty aromas, cashew nut, lively acidity but then falls away towards the finish.

93 | Gorgeous sweet-lemon aromas. Super bright and fresh though little short.

94 | Well developed and gentle nutty, lemon curd, tonic water aromas, fine lacy al dente textures and fresh mineral acidity. Attractive density and fresh bubbles.
