The nose opens with cherry blossom, wet stone and fresh berries, unfolding into pear, peach and spring flowers.cavedessacres+3
Wine Enthusiast (99 pts) calls it "always-memorable," while Jeb Dunnuck praises its "refined, chalky texture with a pillowy mousse, building to a ripe and rounded mid-palate". Peter Liem notes a "vibrant depth of flavour and sophisticated interplay between fruit and chalky minerality".
