Nicolas Belfrage: (cc: water-pale = 1; deep gold = 9) cc3. Some of the perfume and pungency of the grape on the nose. Some fat and minerality on the palate. Nicely balanced, commendable acid-fruit, typical and well made—easily the winner of the North American bunch so far. Drink as an apéritif or with seafood or light meats- 15.5

Marcel Orford-Williams: Bready, yeasty, bone dry; clean but lacking fat and middle palate. Finish is long. Some merit here but not a lot of fun- 13.5

Joanna Simon: Medium-pale straw. Honey, nougat, and minerals on the nose—quite exotic. Full, dry palate; concentrated and mineral, with perfumed, peachy fruit and a creamy texture; balancing acidity, but a slightly dense, solid, alcoholic feel overall- 14.5
