BUY THE WINE

Bruno Besa | Brilliant straw. Intense, citrus, aromatic, clean, floral nose, with orange blossom, mandarin, lavender, and chamomile. Mature, clean, rich palate, with sweet yellow-fruits finish. | 89

Andrew Jefford | Steel green-gold. Fresh and flowery in style; some orange blossom. Moderate lift and definition, but there is reward in here if you look. Lively, fresh, graceful, and gracious on the palate; soft, moderately concentrated fruits. Pretty peach and nectarine. Not a fine wine, but attractively drawn. | 89

Michael Palij | Attractive nose: very leesy, with notes of yogurt and dried honey allied to apricot, nutmeg, nectarine, and kiwi. Slightly reduced but pleasantly so. Good persistence, with a richness and honeyed character that imbues this wine with lovely length and a fragrant complexity. | 89
