The Washington wine sits pale yellow-green in the glass and smells of tropical fruit with quite a buttery overlay. The oak treatment rests in that place that's maybe a skosh too much, but a lot of people like it there. What saves the day is the ripeness of the fruit and the raciness of the acidity. Both come in heaping helpings. Papaya, guava, banana and pineapple all take a turn on the taste buds. The mouthfeel is full and the finish takes a long time.
