The taste of the wine professionals:
2010 Vintage
Restrained nose of flowers, pear and lime. Rich, concentrated wine with ample grip and extract. It has typicity and good expression of white fruit, floral notes and mineral characters. Drink: 2013-2016 / Score 17
Highly recommended 4* - DECANTER Magazine July 2012
2009 Vintage
Light yellow. Subdued nose delivering notes of white flesh fruits and ripe lemon after swirling. Well structured, robust palate boasting wonderful exuberance. Carries on over substantial length with extremely pleasant crisp lemony aromatics. Score 90/100
