Rated 93
The 2024 Cotes de Tablas Blanc slowly evolves with a spicy blend of freshly split pine, dusty sage and ginger-spiked green apples. The palate is soothingly round with silken textures and ripe orchard fruits, while a tinge of saline minerality adds savory depth toward the close. A sensation of liquid stone resonates under sweet spice and inner florals as this finishes with excellent length and a salty flourish. Drinking Window 2025-2028.
