Tasting note
Half barrel fermented, and all oak-aged (roughly two-thirds new), this cloaks the lush fruit flavors of pineapple, peach and nectarine in a wash of caramel. The wine remains well proportioned, with acids and barrel toast playing a supporting role. Score - 89. (Paul Gregutt, Wine Enthusiast, March 1, 2017)
This dry, medium-bodied and woody white displays a complex and medium nose. On the palate, its refreshing acidity and broad texture precede a long finish.
Intense nectarine, caramelized pineapple and citrus aromas that mingle beautifully with the vanilla and creme brulee notes from barrel fermentation.
