Though unoaked, it is lees aged and boy does it deliver. Nose is straight pineapple upside down cake, rich with fruit, pie crust and clarified butter. There are quaffs of citrus and cold slate rounding it out quite nicely. Palate is big, round and supple. Juicy pineapple, lemon jelly, rendered duck fat and salty macadamia nuts. Not my typical go-to type of wine, but you gotta give the juice it's credit! Fun wine with a lot to show.
