This wine has a luminescent, straw color with a subtle sheen. Meyer lemon, white nectarine, baking spice, and saltwater taffy on the nose. The palette offers up warm oak spice, sandalwood, and stone fruit. With a lemon-butter-cream texture, this wine is lush yet still very bright and fresh. Lively acidity, with a custard type of roundness/richness, and the warm oak spice follows through on the pallet. Delicious balance between richness and freshness.
Barrel fermented in mixed age French oak producing a medium clear lemon color.
