this is top drawer—elegant, detailed and richly varietal. the fruit is tart and tangy but not sour or thin. mixed green fruits, apple, citrus, and a lightly toasty nose set up a wine with impressive length. the midpalate richness includes ripe melon, butterscotch and cinnamon spice. it's all barrel-fermented in neutral oak. this is a real strength of the brand.
