Top Notes For

8.7

Star bright straw gold. Shy nose of yellow apple and spice. Full bodied palate echoes the nose with added oak and medium plus acidity. Very well balanced with fruit and oak and acidity all present and playing their roles without overwhelming the others. Priced like a sipper; drinks like a table wine. Enjoy with most classic white wine foods (fish, poultry, pork, etc.).

Oak overwhelms most of the flavor with some tart fruit poking through. Light acid in the finish.
