Correct pale straw/gold color with developing aromas of chamomile, lemon, and just a bit of fresh, uncooked fennel. Palate is bright and balanced with white stone fruit, Meyer lemon, nice medium + body, and a long finish that's really noticeable on the sides of the tongue. This is a really beautiful wine. It could have gone another year or two. — 11 years ago
