The ‘23 seems to have a bit more tropical fruits profile. Lush textured palate with refreshing acidic lift. Price is inching up every vintage but still reasonable given the quality of the fruits.

All the bottlings from this home estate vineyard are solid, and this is no exception.
Ripe peach, cantaloupe, lemon curd, and white floral on the nose. Creamy palate balanced by bright acidity and light fresh herbs.

Not all that floral as expected. Comes across as slightly buttery like a Chardonnay which is not expected for this grape.
