Dec 4th, 2019ALWAYS a winner. I could drink nothing but this winery for the rest of my life and be happy.
2016 has some slight vanilla undertones but it’s crisp and dry. Tight acid. I’m getting some great topical fruits of mango and pineapple with an appeliness. Yum!

Nice orchard and stone fruit aromas with well integrated oak. Definitely not a buttery wine but has a creamy texture from the lees which makes it very nice and also a very dry palate. Reminiscent of some medium range premier cru white burgundies.
