    September 18, 2022 - By the glass. Light wine, with some charm and once well aerated develops very pure but at the same time very basic citrus aromas. Acid and a little short but fresh and tasty all together. No doubt about its future.

    Por copas Vino ligero, con algo de encanto y que una vez bien aireado desarrolla aromas cítricos muy puros pero a la vez muy básicos. Ácido y un poco corto pero fresco y sabroso al mismo tiempo. Sin dudas respecto a su futuro.

    March 6, 2021 - Clear pale straw. White peach, slight hint of pepper, apricot. Medium acid, no tannins, not sweet. Lemon curd. Short balanced finish. Bottle at La Coquile.

    July 11, 2020 - Lovely nose, white stone fruit, flowers and a hint of matchstick; the palate has a nice amplitude and concentration, and there is a good intensity of citrus flavours; the difficult finish is dry and chalky, but it lacks resonance and precision. At restaurant Grand Caron, Amsterdam, NL.
