An explosion of honeyed fruit of all origins. Pears, oranges, apricots, and peaches. Orange cream complemented by excellent acidity, minerality, and a smokiness just starting to show itself. Still too young, but can be enjoyed now.

Solid, reliable dessert wine. A bit more VA than I'd prefer but good acidity.
