Top Notes For

Subtle floral nose. Full and rich with juicy peach skins and mango in the front to mid palate. Jasmine, nuts (but not in an oxidezed manner), and stones in the mid to rear palate. Precise and ripe yet restrained in the best way. Beautifully made.

The weight of the Viognier with some nice acid. Malo is stopped.

Tree blossom and honey on the nose. Peach skin and unripe mango through the palette moving to a complex, almost Campari like bitterness on the finish. Like three separate wines frankly. Very nice.
