It exhibits a captivating balance between richness and acidity on the palate, developing an expansive and resonant finish.

Tasting Notes

Overtly exotic, indeed to the point of being somewhat tropical with its combination of apricot, melon, papaya, white peach and dollop of wood scents. The succulent, round and opulent medium-bodied flavors possess reasonably good vibrancy while exhibiting solid if not truly special persistence on the nicely dry finale. This is one of those wines that could easily be enjoyed young or held
