Absolutely pleasant, yet I recall more character when I have had it at Restaurant Address. Possibly this has been other vintages. 15/3-2023 (home)

Fruity, ripe apple, some woody barrel aromas. Med body with rich notes of apricot, apple pie, some butter and a soft finish.

One of our #wineroadtruckers wines from 2017 harvest in Sonoma. 2015 vintage. Marzipan & lemon curd with full mouthfeel followed by surprise acidity.
