Overall Score 91
Judge 1 highly aromatic and primary nose. thiols. tangerine, sweet green pea. grapefruit pith, sweaty, sweet reduction. balanced palate with gorgeous phenolics and lots of length. maybe not varietal? probably controversial.
Judge 2 Fresh and lifted pineapple and yellow stone fruits. Big and solid and punchy. Round and wider shaped.
Judge 3 Palest blonde in the glass, this wine smells of white flowers and pears. In the mouth, silky flavors of pear and apple mix with lemongrass and dried herbs as a deep chalky minerality rumbles along beneath the fruit. Very pretty, but my one criticism is that it is softer in the acid department than I would like,
Associate Judge floral, nectarine, pretty and apprachable wine
