What do the experts say?

“

Decanter Magazine (95 points): After just one sip, the grandeur here is apparent. While this is a youthful wine, there is incredible perfume, flavour intesity, and a super-refined finish. It is drinking, but will outrun many innocent Semillons by a mile. I was hypnotised by the sleek, super-cool lemon balm, white flower hints and minutes long finish. It's a stunning wine by a world-class winery. Drink best 2024-2034.
