TASTING NOTE: This single-vineyard gem bristles with nerve and verve showcasing a solid line of bright acidity. Aromas of flinty/minerality and green apple give way to myriad, small bubbles carrying lemon-lime tang and notions of passion fruit. Clean, dry and vibrant throughout, you won't go wrong pouring with freshly shucked, briny oysters with condiments - fresh lemon, hot sauce, horseradish. Score - 4 out of 5 stars (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, Jan. 8, 2015) |
