Great crushed seashell and lime cirtus on nose. Unctious and rich on the pallat, finishes nice and mellow with again a citus splash. Yum

What an elegant evening! Delightful wine to compliment an excellent meal. Smokey nose, not too fruity. Jennifer would order this again in a heartbeat. Jennifer said the nose is heavier than she's used to.

Golden color, honey, grain, oatmeal, melon, peaches. I like decanting t because it evolves nicely over a couple of hours.

Very fresh and elegant. High mineralogy with white peach and a hint of banana (!!) to finish the palette. A solid wine to start a meal.
