Most Exciting Wine of The Vintage
I was very taken with this; similar balance and depth as a fine white Burgundy but the change in flavour and weight was marked, and reminded me what a useful alternative white Rhône can be.
(Tom Cave, BBR Cellar Plan Manager)

Matured in barrique for two years, this is an approachable, seductive wine with notes of hawthorn and honeysuckle. Hints of guava, lemon meringue and beeswax all vie for attention on the densely textured and honeyed palate.
(Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer)
