Review from the Washington Post 28.2.22

This is a lovely sauvignon blanc, racy and lively with ripe flavors of Granny Smith apples, orchard blossoms and a hint of lime. The finish lingers like the clear pitch of a tuning fork. It’s a great partner for seafood or poultry dishes. Croatian-born Eva Pemper started this brand in 2019 — she’s a name to watch.

TASTING NOTE
Pristine and elegantly lifted, the inviting bouquet shows white flesh peach, Granny Smith apple and kaffir lime characters, leading to a lively palate offering excellent fruit purity backed by fine texture and bright acidity. Flavoursome and gorgeously lingering.
 
WINEMAKING
The grapes were machine harvested and field destemmed before being gently pressed to stainless steel holding tanks for fermentation at cool temperatures with selected yeast strains with aim to preserve the aromatic and fruit flavours from the vineyard.
 
FOOD MATCHING
Fish and seafood are a great choice to match. Delicate flavours of these dishes will complement the bright varietal characters of this wine.

CELLARING POTENTIAL
Recommendation is to drink this wine within 2-3 years of vintage date so that it can be enjoyed at the peak of its freshness and vibrancy.
