"Smells like two pieces of limestone struck together. Lemon, green apple and flint flavors mingle on the palate as this fades to a long finish. Offers nice balance and persistence. Best from 2011 through 2015."

"Bright, pale yellow. Aromas and flavors of lime, lemon cake icing, mint and metallic minerality. Supple, pliant and juicy, displaying good definition for village wine. Finishes firm and quite dry, but not as austere as the 2014 was a year ago. - Stephen Tanzer"

"Delicate apple, flint and blossom. Good underlying richness, with nice backbone and structure. Briny minerality with a long, textured finish."

"
Rich, perfumed aromas of brioche, pear tart, and golden apple entice the nose accented by orange blossom and quince. The wine has an acid-lifted creaminess of texture that tilts towards white peach and resolves with chalk-dusted pear. — Anna-Christina CABRALES"
