First wine tastes at Afton Mountain Vineyards. This is also the 1st real vintage of this bottling for public release. Clear and bright yellow. Very clean nose with lots of white and tropical fruits such as guava, and white peaches. A little sweet on the palate with citrus and tropical fruits like lime, and white peaches. Moderate acidity (5.5/10) with light to moderate body. Moderate plus finish. Drink till 2019.
