2024. Flabby this is not. Not my usual drink but in 375 I wanted to try it. Pleasant. More acidity than expected. Usual Cal flavors but quite well made. Enjoyable.

Pale lemon color with stone, tropical and citrus fruits with floral and baking spice notes. On the palate flavors of apple, pineapple and lemon citrus with floral and spice. Lively acidity, medium finish ending with fruit, citrus and biscuit notes.

Good, but for a Daou wine pretty unremarkable. Daou Vineyards tasting at NCWC 10/27/17.
