"Bright with a pink hue and subtle coppery overtones. Dynamic, almost creamy bubbles, forming an attractive bead. A lithe, fragrant bouquet with a blend of citrus (Etna blood oranges), floral notes (rose petals), and concentrated red fruit (raspberry). It shows a particularly sensual and “powdery quality with notes of toasted hazelnuts and macarons. This bouquet is exceptionally fresh yet restrained, unfolding with grace and assurance throughout the drinking experience. The palate is delicate, caressing, creamy and enveloping. The concentration of red fruit comes through again with raspberry aromas and fragrant petal notes, endowing the wine with a deliciously rich, satiny quality. The bubbles are soft and tactile, adding a further layer to the delicacy. Then comes an impression of chalky freshness and the hint of a sea breeze, in the form of a palate with a lovely trim finish. One can feel a distinct "freshness from the soil" supported by some lovely plump and saline tannins. This wine reveals depth, richness of flavor, a voluptuous texture with gentle tannins that provide structure without any hardness, and culminates in a saline finish." —winemaker

"Like fine crystal, this is lovely and delicate yet well-cut and finely structured. Fresh and focused, offering flavors of pureed raspberry and creamed white cherry, pink grapefruit pith, blood orange peel, pastry and chopped almond, plus a rich, chalky underpinning. Seamlessly knit, long and persistent, echoing floral, spice, toast and mineral notes. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Drink now through 2045." —Wine Spectator
"This is the sip that captures your attention and, if only for a moment, offers refuge from the world's noise. The 2015 finds itself in a wonderful spot, where its presumed vintage intensity currently expresses as harmonious precision. The nose and palate exude fineness, delivering wild berries, blood orange, peach blossom, jasmine, and light patisserie, with a fine vein of saline-chalkiness. Brilliant acidity and dry extract come through with energy, making it an exciting expression to watch." —Wine Enthusiast
"Filigreed elegance, showing subtle red fruit over buttery toasted bread, white chocolate and lemon zest with essential oils. Fine pinprick mousse with medium to full body and zesty yet integrated acidity. The long, strawberry-pie finish is mineral and precise, not without grip yet still refined. Drink or hold." —James Suckling
