Medium golden color. Aromas of white flowers, green melon and fresh herbs. Melon, pear, green apple and citrus fruits (grapefruit and pineapple) on the palate with hints of butter and those fresh herbs. Pleasant mineral component on the finish. Lovely smooth and creamy texture (malolactic fermentation) but no sign of oak. Medium acidity. Nice start to the day, Keith S! Revisited in November 2024. Aging beautifully. Taking my rating up to 9.1.

Smidge of butterscotch in the nose, very light honey and toast to taste.

A 2013 bottle. Very nice with a lobster dinner, not over powering with oak. A compliment to the meal.

Drank with fish, was the perfect accompaniment - light, fresh.
