Nicolas Belfrage: Col code 2. Almost a catty aroma, good acidity and sharp contours, a little too sharp with feline aromas that don’t help typicity. 13

Michael Edwards: This is a neat, complete expression of Soave, the precision of the volcanic, mineral flavors of Soave melding with an evolved spiciness that is not overblown. Excellent. 17

Franco Ziliani: Golden pale bright color with metallic reflects. Elegant ripe, fresh nose with citrus, white flowers, peach, aromatic herbs notes and just a hint of mint. Good integrity and freshness on the palate, with a vibrant, crisp acidity and a good balance of all the elements of the wine. The final is long, vertical, salty, full of savor, still very young. 16.5
