Apricot, citrus, and pear aromas.
Palate
Appealing tropical fruit on entry, refreshing acidity, and elegant texture. Excellent balance.
Growing Conditions
Winter was long and cold. For a second year, crop size was reduced by spring rain at bloom. Cool weather in August slowed ripening and pushed harvest out to mid-September.
Winemaking
Barrel fermented, the wines remained on gross lees for ten months through the end of malolactic. Once assembled, it spent another four months in the cellar to fully clarify.
Appearance
Pale gold color.
