Score 89/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, May 2012

Very pale bright yellow. Bracing aromas of lemon zest, grapefruit, fresh herbs and minerals. Supple and dry, with flavors of citrus peel, licorice, minerals, flowers and white pepper complemented by an intriguing umami saltiness. This fairly austere, sake-like sauvignon nicely melts into the palate on the back end.
