Antonio Galloni: “Le Cran offers terrific freshness and a distinct savory edge. The apricot, chamomile, light honey and wildflower notes are nicely woven together. »90 pts.

John Gilman: "Beautifully complex and wide open bouquet of pear, a touch of blood orange, stony minerality, incipient notes of pastry cream, white flowers and a whisper of buttery oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and quite refined in profile, with a fine core, excellent complexity and grip, superbly fine mousse and a long, focused and very classy finish. Superb juice. »94 pts.
