13.3 ABV, fresh and as and rich as they come, this is a great example of balance and these guys don't subscribe to #IPOB (not a bad thing just saying); deep gold intensity with a little haze from not filtering. Aromas and flavors of hazelnuts, baked apples, and cream. Mouthwatering acidity, this is classic California all the way! #radiocoteau

Quite delicious but primary at this stage in its life with creamy peach and vanilla dominating due to the oak treatment. Has a interesting raw almond finish with typical lemon curd and green apple citrus notes. Needs a few more years but the quality is definitely there.

Superbly balanced, excellent purity and fruit expression, nary a trace of oak, this is worth hunting down for more. Has the energy of a much younger wine. Some
Minerality and good acidity keeps things fresh. Apple, pear, crushed rock and floral notes, outstanding!

Clear straw color Nose hint of grapefruit and pear. Pear in the. Middle and tight finish. I expect more. More oak there is none and more flavor in the finish. Way overpriced
