April 4, 2022 - White peach, pear and floral notes on the nose. Close to medium bodied (8% ABV) with white apple and slightly more tart white pear upfront. Gains density through the middle, adding in white peach and then yellow peach with some background tropical qualities that became more and more dominant the longer it was open. There was richness, but not overt sweetness as the tropical notes were mostly white, trending to yellow fruit, but with enough acidity behind to provide balance. The combination of acidity and tart, white pear/apple on the backside provided good contrast as well as structure. The acidity, while not vibrant, was still a solid presence and supports the fruit well. This wine should continue to improve and show well over the next several years.
