This was a disappointment. Hollowed out. Lacked fruit, acidity and character. Kind of like a lousy strip tease. The only difference was that this was naked from beginning to end.

Lithe, textured yet glides on the palate. Moderately sweet with a compressed fruit profile. Interesting presentation.

Drinking in 2024. Still bright, some oakiness, vanilla and cedar. White stonefruit.

Nice Rhône Valley White blend from California. Well-balanced and interesting mix. Tasty but not extraordinary.

Honeysuckle, pear, ripe green apple and floral notes on smell. Muted but rich similar fruity notes with deep flavor gotten by aging. Not too acidic but sharp enough through end of palate. May benefit from a little more aging to bring out further richness but I would drink this all day.
