March 21, 2021 - An appealing pale straw coloured blend of Carricante and Catteratto revealing indistinct legs within the glass. Stone fruits, grapefruit and hugely enjoyable eucalyptus make a tasty mouthfeel. Chalky, well balanced acidity with ripe fruit finish. A good value table wine.

November 28, 2020 - Broad and impressive for the price -honey and beeswax sort of territory - but with a nice lean acidity making it a great bottle for the table. Better about an hour after pulling the cork when that acidity balances out a little.

August 29, 2019 - The nose is rather pleasant with white flowers and white stone fruit, plus a chunk of minerality. On the palate more of the same, but, initially, with a slightly bitter edge. However after a few minute's air this moderates and the balance is rather good. The finish is quite long and mineral.
Decent QPR at US$17.
