93 points Wine Enthusiast: "[$28 list] There's a unique aromatic profile to this grape that's hard to pin down, but, at least in this bottling, runs from makrut-lime leaf and green-apple extract to sansho pepper and white pepper. It's very dry and focused on the sip, offering lime-peel, peppercorn, caviar-lime and more green-leaf flavors. Alcohol 14.2%. (Dec 2021)"

Producer notes: "[$28 list] Aromatically, this wine leads with a salty citrus edge with earth tones that have exotic hints of North African spices. From there is a depth of jasmine and beautiful citrus driven tropical fruit, reminiscent of squeezing a lime wedge over the fruit of a half cut Papaya. You can’t hide the ever so present ripe grapefruit component that we often refer to as Squirt…the infamous grapefruit soda. This is a super interesting wine. It has a harmonious balance of ripeness but a ton of verve and energy on the palate. A base of salty citrus, ginger and white pepper mingle with grapefruit that all lead to a savory zesty finish drenched in minerality. This wine touches both sides of the Grüner spectrum, bright, fresh and vibrant along with texture and a fullness that showcases what makes Edna Valley white wines unique. 596 cases produced. Alcohol 14.2%."
