  • Score: 89 Vintage 2021 Wine Spectator This white starts out rich, offering peach and melon flavors, with undertones of thyme and stone. Firms up nicely on the dry finish. Drink now. 4,000 cases made, 1,041 cases imported. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 87 Vintage 2021 Wine Enthusiast Generous aromas of green apple, lime and peach lift from the glass of this Gavi. Easy and fresh, the palate showcases the fresh fruit flavors found on the nose with the addition of acacia and thyme on the finish. Shelf Talker Full Page Review
  • Score: 85 Vintage 2018 Wine Enthusiast The shy nose doesn't give much away, while the brisk, informal palate suggests apple and lemon. It has brisk acidity and a bitter almond close. KERIN O’KEEFE Shelf Talker Full Page Review
