TASTING NOTE: Wet stone and fresh lemon are faint but distinct on the nose. A pure lemon flavor streaks across the slender, taut palate, with a comet-like spray of freshness. This wine is dry and, if it weren't for juicy glimpses of ripe lemon, would be almost austere. Score - 93 (Anne Krebiehl, MW, Wine Enthusiast, Aug. 1, 2018) |
