Ripe fruit aromas with notes of oak and spice. On the palate stone fruit flavors with lemon citrus zest adding a sweet creamy tone. Medium finish, good acidity ending with fruit and oaky mineral character. Nice value. Tasting Sample.

Lemon curd and butter aroma. Drying sour apple upfront with a rolling light syrupy juiciness. A nice mild acid that tingles on the lips and tongue and finishes like a tart lemonade. An okay wine for a shrimp boil.
