A few quotes about this white wine.

"The profile is subtle and long. I'm a big fan." - Decanter

"Creamy peaches and only crem-brulee notes. Round and silky, fills all corners of the mouth, pressing with a gentle, steady weight. There is a spiciness that melts through the peach's fullness. Mandarin peel and citrus leaves give an edge. Beautifully balanced, patrician, long spicy conclusion. " - Jancis Robinsons
