Clear, deep lemon color. Clean, med(+) intensity aromas of caramel, brown sugar, ripe peach and butterscotch; fully developed. Dry, full body, nice med acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), med(+) intensity flavors of concentrated peach, toast, ripe banana. Nice medium finish. Drink now to save the fruit notes.

Deep straw color with light pine green. Sulfite bite requires a few minutes of air time. Slight toasted almond and butterscotch nose. Light acid and fairly short finish, but not objectionable and has a malolactic smoothness to it. With a bit more air, it turns to papaya and tropical flavors. I suspect it needs additional breathing time because of the synthetic cork. If it had a slightly more balanced acidity I would rate it much higher.
