"Elegant and complex, the fragrant bouquet shows ripe stone fruit, mango, citrus peel, oatmeal and roasted hazelnut aromas, followed by a beautifully weighted palate displaying creamy texture backed by well-pitched acidity. Splendidly harmonious with a lengthy refined finish. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Dec 2023
Loquat, lemon meringue, brioche and orange zest aromatics give way to a mineral derived wine showing elegance and drive with a long persistent finish.
