If a mountain stream ran through an orchard, you might be able to recreate this aroma combination of pears, apples, ginger and wet stones. The wine's acidity is as brisk as that cold stream, giving the texture a nice crisp snap of a sensation. Flavors of lemon zest, nutmeg and green tea are equally invigorating. — Michael Alberty, Wine Enthusiast 92pts
