What experts say about this wine

100

Wine Enthusiast

Golden in color, this rich and opulent Pinot Grigio captivates from the start with aromas of ripe Fuji apple, fresh cream, roasted lemon rind, a hint of acacia honey and dried flowers. The palate is rich and full in body, showing creamy pear coated in sweet baking spices from the time the wine spent in oak. The wine finishes with vibrant acidity and stony minerality.

James Suckling

Notes of white stone fruit and pears with peach pits, honeysuckle and praline. Medium- to full-bodied, textural and polished with vivid acidity and a clean, mineral finish. Chalky at the end and a little spicy.
