“CAVU - Ceiling and Visibility Unlimited, also known as perfect flying weather. For a pilot, there are very few things as enjoyable as taking off on a beautiful CAVU day and then enjoying a glass of this beautiful wine.
The 2015 CAVU is a brilliant pale gold color with a nose of pear, apricot, canned pineapple, and honeysuckle. Medium alcohol, medium plus acid, and medium plus body combine for a silky mouthfeel with flavors of ripe stone fruit, melon, citrus rind, green apple, and guava. The finish is clean with a distinct minerality.
