April 29, 2024 - PNP. Pale yellow. Fragrant nose of lime zest, melon, fresh cut hay and oak spice. Rich palate that retains its freshness via a crisp, tart, acidic backbone of melon and citrus fruit. I feel the acidity in my back molars. Juicy finish.

October 5, 2019 - From some of Rochioli’s oldest vines with 10 acres planted in 1959. Distinctly a warmer vintage with higher viscosity and tropical fruit. Star fruit, papaya, and meyer lemon flavors with lovely round mouthfeel.
