Wine Expert Note:

The Wine Enthusiast gave the 2022 vintage 91/100 and wrote the following: "Softly layered and well-integrated aromas of peach and salty melon show on the nose of this bottling. The palate's brisk apple, light stone fruit and edgy grapefruit flavors play up against a rocky minerality and zippy acidity."
