This was a farewell dinner for our roommate Arlene. Graduating from viticulturist at Opus One to Chateau Mouton Rothschild. We’re so proud of her!

Very nice lemon and grapefruit citrus. Clean, with hints of malolactic softness. Very crisp acids.

Complex nose of yellow apples, pears and pear blossom with hints of honey. Layered palate with yellow apples, green pear and a touch of honey sweetness. Has great length and complexity! Feels like a wine made from grapes grown in Silex.
