Tasting Notes
The cool climate vineyards in the Russian River Valley produce grapes with high acidity and brightness that delight the palate. A beautiful bouquet of delicate floral aromas, baked pear and citrus zest spring from the glass. Flavors of honeysuckle and lemon meringue are complimented by the smooth palate with touches of vanilla oak from the malolactic fermentation. Hints of minerality and lifting acidity lead to a clean, lush, and balanced finish.
N° 49
