“Aromas of crushed sea shells with sea salt and honey blossom as well as lemon and ginger. Full-bodied but not heavy with a layered mouthfeel giving it presence. Juicy and savory with a real sense of the sea here. Love the salty ending to this. Production of 2,000 bottles from 2 small plots in the vineyards with clay soil.” – 97 Points by James Suckling
