Expert Reviews
A warm growing season leading into a cool harvest time gives a tension-filled wine that is both rich yet fresh with persistent acidity. Lemon curd, vanilla bean and toasted nuts on the nose, then rich lactic notes on the palate. Full-bodied and mouthfilling. The varietal character shines through despite a heavy hand in the winery. A long, spice-filled finish punctuates this exceptional wine.
There's a guava character to the nose of this bottling, yet it's cut by a river stone edge. A bright sizzle of acidity and a chalky flesh envelop the palate, with plumeria and more guava flavors at play.
