  • Intense nose of exotic fruits; well balanced with nice acidity; still has years left

  • With sufficient air in advance the wine sings quite well, but it needs time. Good length. Quite clean and crisp, and a touch more retro than I seem to have noted last time.

  • Despite several hours of air this wine shine better on day two. First day I would like to see somewhat more of a spine in the wine, and to me it almost shows as being slightly out of focus. Day two the spine is more present, clean and crisp fruit with OK length on the finish. A bit disappointment, but I believe it will get there but needs somewhat more time to develop fully. 89 p now with potential.

  • I expected more after reading reviews. Wine is not bad, however I am not impressed. And most of all, the lack of pronounced aroma and presence of dominating acid levels are the factors that prevented me from rating this wine higher.

  • Colour: Intense light yellow in colour.
    Nose: A bunch of yellow, ripe stone fruit paired with herbs, white flowers, a bit of rocket salad, sea salt and a "crashed stone" component.
    Palate: Wonderful light to medium body but coincident so much tension, vibration and power. Insanely mineraly driven, with a lot of citrus & salty components as well.

    I never expected this wine so good. Perfect with raw fish or mussels. You can drink it now or for the next 5-8 years.
