Perfumed nose of honey , nuts and apricots. Tremendous concentration of flavors that are consistently changing as it sits in the glass. Pineapple, minerals , almonds , lime and honey all make appearances in every possible combination. A Reubenesque wine.

Pretty good considering vintage. Nice and fresh tree fruit. Clean acidity. Love Rayas purity.
