Awarded 2 out of 3 Stars in the 2014 Guide Hachette des Vins. TASTING NOTE: Delicate floral and honeyed aromas come through with a beautiful smoky, mineral character. The palate has a charming, polished sweet citrus fruitiness with a touch of creaminess and a delicious fleshy fruit finish. Score - 92 (Decanter World Wine Awards, 2016) |
