An exceptional balance of fruit and richness that is concentrated and elegant with tropical fruit, peach, apricot, pineapple, melon and floral tones. The clean and juicy palate shows complexity and finishes with crisp acidity that balances with the ripe flavors.

This was a cooler year with abundant rain in February followed by endless sunny days which produced bud break in the first and second week of March. The mild temperatures allowed for slow ripening-perhaps the longest duration we’ve had in a long time. This factor helped encourage even cluster development, strong yields, complex flavors, high acidity and excellent quality that will help contribute to the longevity of this vintage.
