Description

Praise

Very complex on the nose…dense and textured on the palate but remains fresh. Excellent length. A serious and complex wine and should continue to age well, though it is delicious now. Very versatile at the table. One of the best dry Moscatels I have tasted, and consistently so over the vintages.

– Julia Harding MW

Fresh, fragrant and mature, the variety shows characteristic florality (elderflower) and finesse. In the mouth it is fruity (think tangerine, citrus, green apples and actually grapes!) dry and with a luscious finish.

-Indigo Wines

Straw yellow, bright, very aromatic. White flowers emerge with white fruit, citrus notes and herbal aromas, with touches of minerals (slate). Surprisingly dry. Wide mid palate with oily texture. Rich acidity. Tasty, long and persistent.

– Decántalo.com

An ode to elegance…fresh notes, fruity and floral in an integrated spring. The dense, silky texture conveys a symphony of citrus, acacia flowers, fine toasted hints and pleasant notes of muscatel bitterness in all its flavoursome fullness

– Mario Caravadossi (on verema.com)
