Critic Ratings

James SucklingReview– Rated 92:

Papaya, sliced-mango, and dried-apricot aromas follow through to a full body with a round texture and a fruity finish. Tropical fruit at the end. Drink now.

Wine Spectator Review– Rated 92:

Distinctive, fresh and fragrant, with notes of lemon verbena and lemongrass up front, with touches of fresh-grated ginger, yuzu and grapefruit that linger with terrific intensity on the finish. Drink now.

Wine Enthusiast Review– Rated 90:

Vivid herb and citrus aromas and a tangy, lively mouthfeel make this medium-bodied wine mouth watering. Snap peas, celery, lemon and jicama flavors show a strong presence.
