 Tasted by der Schmecker on 3/30/2024 & rated 91 points: Light, mineral and floral notes. French oak barriques (10% new) so more refreshing than round. Nicely done. (101 views)
 Tasted by WhooskeyWine on 3/30/2024 & rated 89 points: Pale yellow hue. Aromas and flavors of apple, butter, cream, melon, peach, pear, vanilla. Medium-light body with plus acidity. Mineral finish. Medium-length finish. Balanced yet restrained. (78 views)
 Tasted by WindFlyer on 3/30/2024 & rated 89 points: greenish straw with light body. very fresh and subtle nose of citrics and white stone fruit with whiffs of honeysuckle. similarly fresh and subtle in mouth, a neutral grape feels opens up to refreshing green apple and white pear flavours. silky in texture, a citric lift and chalky base provide a good frame for the juice. moderate length.

13.5% AbV; whole-cluster pressed and fermented and aged on French oak barriques (10% new); the oak influence is more apparent in the texture than in the flavours. (105 views)
