  Had nice clarity for being unfiltered, straw yellow in color.
  The wine looks straw colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like oak, lemon, petrol and honey. Taste had notes of banana, lemon squares and pear. Well balanced throughout. We paired with a homemade Shrimp bisque soup we made with a toasted baguette. It was delicous.

  Unabashed yellow color. The nose sports richer tones of honeycomb, ginger snap, whipped honey, with brighter tones of white flowers and dandelions, along with limes, lemon curd, and yellow apple fruit. Deep texture on the palate with racy acidity and a pretty display of yellow apples, golden pears, drizzled with limes. There are a lot of chalky, salty vines in here, and the wine maintains this clear presence throughout, with notes of mountain stream and minerals that accent the honey and nougat nuances. Delicious, balanced, beautiful. Barrel-fermented and aged 10 months in 25% new French oak.
