Cellar/Tasting Notes
"The pure, ripe and delicate plum, raspberry and wilted rose flavors are delivered on a tight beam, with snappy acidity and firm, vibrant tannins."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Sweet plums and cherries on then nose, with rose petal. Full body, with silky, refined tannins and a fruity, clean finish. Delicious now.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Light to medium gold with a greenish hue, this wine exhibits wonderfully pure notes of wood spice such as vanillin, honeyed citrus, a hint of under-ripe peach, and touches of creme brulee and marmalade. With great acidity and finesse, this is a medium-bodied, impressively endowed, but generally..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
