Light, brilliant tone with lively aromatics of fresh ripe peaches, honeysuckle, and cantelope. Bright on the mouthfeel with juicy, lightly sweet notes of gravenstein apple and pear. Layers of floral and mineral elements linger in the nicely balanced finish. Enjoy with ripe cheeses or a seafood pairing.
Notes
The grapes were hand-harvested and then pressed directly, without de-stemming, to maintain the delicate flavors and avoid oxidation. The juice was fermented cool for a slow, long fermentation. The wine was ready for bottling after a brief aging in stainless steel.
