Nice bright lemon color... but packing both real weight and acidity. Ripe juicy pear and red apple with a touch of richness, butter, toast...13.7 ABV... the wine has knit itself into a round, complex whole of its parts. A touch too new world for some, and too dry and old world for others. I admire the winemaking restraint and the complex fruit from the highly regarded vineyard. Nice dinner companion.

Rich yellow color. White flowers, chamomile and lemon on nose with more citrus, lemon curd, honey, and some stone fruit on palate. Very high acid, full bodied, long and full finish. Young, needs time. Very Santa Cruz.
