Professional Ratings

92 Wine Enthusiast
Perfumed floral aromas brush up against dried twig and hay on the nose that rests on a foundation of muddled green apple. Rounded chalky acidity opens on the palate with a tart-and-ripe mix of orchard fruit that playfully lingers. Serve by the glass by itself, or pair with a meal.

Winemaker Notes

The wine presents a pale color with yellow highlights. The refined and expressive nose reveals aromas of green citrus and blackcurrant bud, enhanced by notes of sansho pepper and exotic spices. On the palate, minerality shines through with vibrant green citrus and mandarin freshness, supported by subtle grapefruit zest bitterness. Balance and elegance take center stage, leading to a long finish with a pleasant saline touch.
