wine score
91 points James Suckling
“A fresh and lively style with fresh, red flowers and ripe, red cherry aromas, and hints of raspberries too. The palate has a juicy fresh feel. The vibrant, light tannins carry flavors of red cherries and red plums. A neat, finish that's on point. Drink or hold.”
