"Made from Pinot Noir, this white wine displays a hint of pale salmon tinge, fresh aromas of floral, red cherry and orange zest. It's gently fruity on the palate with a touch of sweetness, rounded texture and well balanced acidity. A lovely refreshing wine. 86 Points **** Stars" - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
