Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Light straw yellow in color, with a complex and alluring nose. Notes of honeycomb,
sweet lemon, and brioche harmonize with an earthy fresh straw and captivating flint
note. The palate is light-footed and elegant, showing restraint and lovely midpalate
silkiness. A touch of gingersnap passes through as the finish comes to a clean and
energetic close.
Vintage Notes
The 2018 vintage saw some of the warmest and driest months on record; however
moisture and cool temperatures returned to finish the season. The 2018 wines show
beautiful aromatics, bright acidity, and finesse.
