Medium lemon with aromas of nice ripe stone and tropical fruits with floral spice notes. Sourced from 40+ year-old vines, on the palate flavors of apple, peach and pineapple fruit flavors with a nice dollop of citrus and toasty oak. Well balanced, fresh long finish ending with creamy mineral character. Nice value.

Made in the Cali style with oak and sweetness but with fantastic concentration, balance and structure. Tropical fruits and pastry on the nose. Actually really harmonious. Supple waxiness and minerals. Great value!
