Critics Ratings

‘Bright crimson. Sweet and raspberry on the nose. Fresh and well balanced but very embryonic. A sort of wild card. Bouncing and yapping like a puppy and not nearly ready to drink,. Everything seems to be tucked in here for a long life but it would be a real waste to drink it yet.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (April 2009)

'A whiff of chalk dust, along with a vanilla note, introduces this intense white. Flavors of peach, grapefruit and oak spice persist through the finish, with a mineral streak. Powerful and balanced, with a lingering aftertaste. ' - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 94/100
