BUY THE WINE

Michael Edwards: fine gold, filigreed lacy mousse. Bright red fruits, precision and excellent balance. | 91

Simon Field: Straw color. Slight reduction on the nose; behind that, bitter almond and the smell of pavements after rain. A distinctive, uncompromising style, seemingly, yet more accessible on the palate, where hints of orange and mandarin fruit jostle with a citric swell and civilized, broadly discursive mid-palate. Finely poised, statuesque, but with great potential. | 91

Anne Krebiechl: Golden color. On the nose, very appetizing, almost lifted, notes of apricot crumble and fine Viennoiserie. The palate continues in this gentle fashion that unites creaminess, subtle fruit, and latent brightness. The body seems rich, soft, and layered with more apricot, while the mousse dissipates slightly. Softness, gentleness, and subtlety all fall in line around a central seam of freshness. Lovely and strangely moreish. | 95
