Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Pale lemon color with aromas of ripe fruits, citrus, honey and pronounced floral scents. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and citrus, toasty notes, good balance with lively crisp acidity. Medium finish ending with nutty spice, mineral, biscuit and citrus notes. Good now!

Not a lot of depth, but very fresh and clean with notes of pear and huckleberries.

Quite nice with buttermilk roasted chicken ($18), a mellow accompaniment. Higher rating than with previous bottles of same vintage.
