Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 92
The nose starts sweet and snackable, with notes of popcorn, almonds, toasted coconut and brown butter, before some sharp streaks of lime and spearmint. The nuts and mint stick around on the palate, where a hint of licorice provides a medicinal quality to contrast with the buttery croissant finish.
