| TASTING NOTE: Intense aromas of crushed lime and lemon as well as mineral and flint follow through to a medium body, ultra-precise acid and fruit balance. Long and linear finish. Just a hint of vanilla and cream. Give it a year or two to develop in the bottle but already a beauty. Score - 95 (James Suckling, jamessuckling.com, February 8, 2017) |
