HALF BOTTLE (375ml)
WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Ripe peach, citrus fruits, spice, and pie crust aromas all mingle and lift from the glass. The citrus, supported by notes of apricot, continues on the palate which is concentrated with a rich, creamy middle palate, and strong supporting acidity. The finish is long and marked with hints of vanilla. This wine will continue to build richness as it ages in the bottle.
TASTING NOTES:
Butter, oak and vanilla flavors dominate the aroma and flavor of this full-bodied, heavily oaked wine. It has a dessert-like quality that is honeyed on the palate and lingers sweetly on the finish.
-Wine Enthusiast, 92 pts.
Supple and juicy, this opens with flavors of toasted brioche and graham cracker, along with creamy vanilla nougat grace notes, complementing the core of plump peach, melon, candied orange peel and apricot preserves, backed by accents of clove and toasted cardamom. Drink now. 261,000 cases made.
