Aromas of grapefruit peel, orange blossom, and white peach waft up from the glass. Peaches are dominant on the palate, orange blossom and lemon peel add complexity on the mid-palate. Peach lingers. This is a lovely wine, loaded with stone fruit and florals. Drink with fresh rainbow trout. Highly Recommended.

The nose is fascinating, offering tropical fruit in toasty pastry, roasted chestnuts, and honeysuckle.

Guava and chestnuts linger forever.This is a marvelous wine, rich, round, throwing waves of flavors and aromas.
