90 pts Robert Parker, Jr. The Wine Advocate #173
Light straw-colored with a lovely bouquet of fresh herbs, honeysuckle, and citrus. That leads to a medium-bodied wine exhibiting melon and tropical flavors, excellent acidity, a supple texture, and a pure, fruit-filled finish. Drink it over the next 1-2 years with shellfish or roast chicken.

87 pts Stephen Tanzer International Wine Cellar 2007
Greenish yellow. Sharply etched lemon and grapefruit on the nose, with fine minerality adding energy. Slightly tart on entry, then fleshes out in the middle, picking up ripe orange and apple flavors. Finishes brisk and persistent.
