Tasting Profile
Medium straw in color, opens with aromas of lime, orange blossom, honeydew melon, and a hint of freshly split wood. Palate shows classic Carneros flavors of Golden Delicious apple and peach alongside kiwi, melon, and wildflower honey, with resonant, high-toned mouthfeel striking a balance between richness and elegance.
Winemaking: Blends Wente, Côte d'Or, and Mt. Eden clones, fermented primarily with native yeast in French oak with small percentage in concrete, aged 16 months undisturbed without lees stirring.
