Tasting Notes

Savory, leesy, and textural, this sapid dry white has lovely breadth and a refined, detailed palate that remains pure and focused. Flavors of yellow fruits, white flowers, citrus, and a chalky minerality tinged with evergreen freshness, compose the deep, flavorful core that flows into the long finish.

Beautiful aromatics of citrus, white flower, freshly picked herbs and sweet vanilla. A weighty, polished palate of stone fruit, while remaining lifted and subtle. Rich, but racy, this is exceptionally well made. Gentle sapidity on the finish with the lightest touch of apple and honey.
