Apple, lemon candy, pear, dried apricot, slate and hints of tangerine. Racy acidity and great minerality.

Honeycomb, nectar, green apple, white peach. A touch of sweetness with 1pc RS. Attractive texture. A successful wine from a low production winery - only 400 cases made. Should be more than $35. #wbc18
