Bright and lively, this absorbs its wood nicely. Its elegance and freshness make it enticing. Is rather tasty, in a dry fashion, and very appealing. The fruit is expressive. It is refreshing as well, dancing lightly across the palate. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, September 2020.
Light Straw Colour, Inital buttery and smoky aromas of wood aging followed by a complex aroma of tropical fruits such as mango, apricot and orange. In the mouth the wine is buttery with volume balanced with refreshing acidity. Very long finish.
