Tasting Notes

Bright straw. Aromas of fresh pear, melon and nectarine are complicated by orange pith and jasmine flourishes. Juicy and penetrating on the palate, offering mineral-tinged orchard and citrus fruit flavors that deepen steadily on the back half. Hints of fennel and ginger emerge on the impressively long, mineral-accented finish, which echoes the floral and pear notes. (Drink between 2021-2026)
