Bright yellow gold. Inviting nose and big rich palate of plantain, yellow lilies, baked apple, and cinnamon bark plus a little orange peel on the entry. Medium minus plus acidity asserts mostly back palate and finish. Wonderful layers of flavor and opulent richness compensate for the lowish acidity making this a wine to pair with only the richest dishes: seared scallops, duck confit, grilled lobster, etc. Drink now through 2024.
