Elegant, luscious but youthful so it isn't yet fully developed. Lovely pineapple and apricot, we'll balanced acidity but will gain depth with more time in the bottle

Wow this wine was good! Apricot, guava, peach, honeysuckle, nice acid and delicious. Absolutely nailed it with foie gras.

Nose of honey-lemon candy. Rich, thick, almost creamy mouthfeel. Flavors of natural, wild honey, lanolin, and a finish of candied orange peel/lemon peel.

Not much depth or complexity, but gets the sweet job done.
