Big ripe apricot / peach, minor vanilla, minor cream / med to med+ body with balanced acidity, more round than austere but not exactly “fatty”... half-supple?

A bit flabby: lacks acidity to stand up to 13.5% alcohol. Some peach and citrus notes.

Got on sale. Beautiful stone fruit (white peach, apricot) even a bit of pineapple on the nose. Medium body and acidity. Any more oak would be over the too but sits at a good spot as is. Taste some bready notes as well.

Flint, slate underpinned w/ apricot and creamy pear. Delicate floral notes. Good balance — rich texture.

A bit floral initially, but quickly a nice refined light drink
