92 points Wine Spectator: "[$20 list] Vibrant, with fresh pomelo, ginger and lemon zest flavors that reverberate at the core. Details of lemon verbena, celery leaf and saline linger on the long, expressive and mouthwatering finish. Drink now. (6/15/21)"

92 points Jams Suckling: "Very attractive peach and passion-fruit notes with fresh lime, too. The palate has a smooth, fleshy feel with succulent passion-fruit and lime flavors. Good depth and concentration, too. Drink now. Screw cap. (2/9/21)"

90 points Rebecca Gibb, MW (Vinous): "[$20 list] There's an impressive sense of balance and substance on the midpalate of this wine, which offers classic Sauvignon flavors of gooseberry, passion fruit, pineapple and grapefruit, but the aromatic flamboyance is reined in; this is mid-volume, not boom-box Sauvignon. The fine, balanced acidity and dry finish make this a great 'session' Sauvignon – i.e., you can have a third glass. Drink: 2020-2024. (Nov 2020)"

90 points Decanter: "Quite a grassy, citrussy style of Sauvignon Blanc, with more of the perky gooseberry and nettle side of the flavour spectrum than overt tropical fruit. There's sharp sherbet lemon acidity running throughout, turning more creamy on the finish. Perfect with a Friday fish supper. Drinking Window: 2021-2023. (Feb 2021)"
