  This has some complexity, the nose has lots of tropical fruit, hint of oak, white flowers, pear and some citrus. However, the low acidity is a problem. The wine feels more alcoholic than it is (13.5%) and the aftertaste gives an impression of sweetness, despite this being a dry wine. (I love off-dry wines, but it's not what I am looking for in this wine.) A technical sheet for the 2019 vintage shows a pH of 3.5, which is quite high for a white wine.
  
  So in all, while I can recognize the quality of this wine, it's not for me.
