Pale lemon with aromas of stone fruits and oaky notes. On the palate flavors of apple, lemon zest and pear with a bit of vanilla and oak. Medium finish ending with fruit and gentle smoky spice. Tasting Sample.

Ahhh, this is perfect for a nice evening dinner in Santa Fe. The waiter might be taking himself too seriously but this bottle is serious enough and worth a moment of reflection. It’s crisp and mellow at the same time. Walking that fine line between cream and acid. Vanilla, honey, apple, pear, coconuts, and almonds. It’s all there. Even fig. Second bottle, please!

White flowers, citrus, on-point oak application / has a nice village-level burg feel to it, with a strongly mineral and saline twist
