Description

James Suckling Review
Rated 93
A vivid, well-balanced and mineral-infused wine that punches above its weight. Flinty, stony, earthy aromas, then generous lemon curd, green apple and Bosc pear flavors lifted by lively acidity at 6.3 grams per liter. Drink now or hold.

How To Serve

How To Serve
  • Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
  • Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
  • Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
  • Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
