Shop/wine critic/winery review:
    92 Points - Wine Enthusiast
    With great intensity and structure, this is a wine that's all about texture and potential. It's expressive with white fruits and perfume, but there's a richness that's still to come. Drink from 2016 and see how the minerality and acidity will come into balance.

My Review:  
    This wine has a clean golden color and a light fruity scent. Upon tasting, the wine has a dry, bitter, tart, mildly fruity start that transitions nicely into a smooth slightly sweet fruity finish. There is also a pleasant lasting fruitiness. 79/100
