Good weight and texture balanced by a fine line of acidity, drawing out to a flavourful, lingering finish.

Looking even better on the second day! Excellent weight, balance and texture. Strong finish with excellent structure.

Fairly rich, nice floral nose. Decent acidity balances a creamy mouthfeel. Similar to a Ramey. Pretty white nectarine flavors.
