Green apple Jolly Rancher, underripe Bosc pear, dry lemon pulp, chalky, yellow florals, wax beans, refined edgey minerality and a long, dry citrus finish. Nose has a little of that NZ cat pee thing.

Ripe and tropical SB. Semillon adds a nice creamy texture. The oak is a little aggressive and persistent on the finish.

Last of my cellared stash. I think this is a bit past peak for the vintage.

Wow! Never paired a white wine with pizza, but this beauty paired nicely with a Hawaiian pizza. It had just enough to cut through the cheese. It stood up to the acidity of the tomatoes, and just the right amount of residual sugar to match the pineapples. I highly recommend this pairing.
