"The snappy, zesty bouquet is clean, tart and refreshing, then in the latter stages the astringent presence of lemon peel really comes alive. Palate entry is like lemon drop hard candy, sweet but pleasantly tart; by midpalate, the tartness accelerates becoming more astringent and refreshing with every sip. One of the best limoncellos to come my way in a year or two. Best Buy." 90-95 pts.

"Deep yellow-straw hue. Pungent, hedonistic hazelnut and vanilla aromas. A lush attack leads to a medium-bodied and flavorful palate with mild sweetness. Very well balanced. Flavorful, lengthy finish. Exotic, pure and intense."

"Sophisticated and delightful aromas of tangerine and rhubarb. The palate entry is delightfully citrusy and sweet; the midpalate phase offers just enough herbal bitterness to balance. Ends up refreshing, orangey sweet and delectably herbal. This deserves to become a popular pre-dinner quaff." 90-95 pts.

"Brilliant, bright amber hue. Spirity almond and spice aromas. A lush entrance leads to a moderately full-bodied palate with moderate sweetness. Explodes in flavor on the mid palate. Precise, persistent finish."

"Deep yellow-straw hue. Pungent, hedonistic hazelnut and vanilla aromas. A lush attack leads to a medium-bodied and flavorful palate with mild sweetness. Very well balanced. Flavorful, lengthy finish. Exotic, pure and intense."

"An initial aroma of bittersweet dark chocolate, orange peel, and herbs; air contact stimulates scents of flowers, jasmine, bark, forest, honey, and very light quinine. The palate entry is intensely sweet and floral; at midpalate the taste profile turns cocoa-like with notes of citrus rind, molasses, brown sugar, and grass. Concludes sweet, thick, and luscious." 90-95 pts.
