After 90 miles of gravel, altitude, and dust this was absolutely refreshing.

Tropical and berry fruit with biscuit aromas. The palate shows apricot, pear and mango flavors, somebody yeasty notes with rich fresh texture. Tangy lingering finish, champagne like, refreshing ending with gentle sweetness.

Fruit forward, minimal yeasty/bready notes. Lots of peach, Apple, kiwi and citrus. Good stuff for the price tag, $16 or so..

Emily picked, really enjoyed. Light & refreshing, nice balance w/ a bit of fruit. Good for outdoor summer drinking. Also paired well w/ pork chops seasoned w/ Old Bay.

Thought this was tasty, good with food. Not memorable but very drinkable.
