Shimmering yellow. An exotically perfumed bouquet evokes ripe orchard and pit fruits, honey and pungent flowers, and a hint of fennel emerges as the wine opens up. Coats the palate with rich yet lively nectarine, pear and tangerine flavors that slowly tighten up and turn spicier through the midpalate. Finishes very long and floral, leaving juicy pear nectar and honeysuckle notes behind. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, May 2020)
