$26.99

91 Rating Wine Enthusiast for 2018 vintage
“This wine opens in effusive jasmine, pear and pineapple—strong aromas that lead to a similarly memorable palate of juicy apple and mango. The oak adds a tilt of saltiness that appeals and broadens the complexity and length of firm, focused acidity.” VIRGINIE BOONE

Winery Tasting Notes
“Tasting Notes: Aromas of quince, pineapple, and honeysuckle; with hints of nutmeg,
fig, and toasted oak. The mouth is clean and bright; filled with flavors of green apple,
pear, and lemon. Firm acidity provides a crisp finish of citrus, mineral, and spice.
