A festive aroma bubbles out of the glass with floral lemon, Asian pear and orange blossom joined by fresh citrus, baked apple and fresh baguette. A light and refreshing entry on the palate has flavors of pineapple, starfruit, lemon bread and fresh almonds. Two vineyards, one picked for riper, more tropical notes and the other picked for higher acid and citrus character were blended together and fermented in 500 liter, neutral French oak barrels. Full malolactic fermentation and lees stirring has integrated yeasty, accents along with weight and body to support the refreshing acid. Carefully timed harvesting, classic barrel fermentation and extended time on lees have provided a medium long, elegant finish.
