Quite nice, affordable and relatively easy to find. There’s certainly some oak there (30% new per tech sheet) but it’s singing backup for the fruit on this one. Bright crystalline candied citrus, some fresh stone fruit, and some butter and cream. Nice acidity strongly contributes to the overall enjoyability.
