“This is an intriguing expression of a grape variety too often overly exuberant. Calm and soothing, like a mineral spring flowing, this is an effortless drink. Notes of fennel, lemongrass, white flower and the faintest hint of vegetation shimmy along a tingly palate, edged by a flinty mineral cut and transparent, natural acidity. More Loire Valley than New World in its guise.” Rating 92/100
