Top Notes For
Javier Gómez-Lavin

Pale golden. Overripe melon dominates the nose with the help of honeysuckle. Melon, honeydew, and pineapple on the palate with a nice, hay-like, transition to mid. Follows through the finish with a smooth, fuller bodied (malo?), and off-dry mouthfeel. Balanced acidity through out. A unique pinot gris, almost comes out like a Viognier. Too sweet for my liking, and could have more minerality, but a well crafted, creative and thoughtful wine nonetheless.
