February 23, 2020 - Medium golden color. Medium intensity nose of golden apple, pear, white blossom, some lightly toasted oak coming through as well. Similar flavors on the palate with a fresh orchard fruit profile and perhaps a little citrus coming through along with a bit of vanilla. Medium+ acid. Medium+ flavor intensity and medium length finish. Quite nice and paired perfectly with an arugula salad with apples, walnuts, fennel and gruyere cheese.

May 8, 2019 - Aromas of peach, lemon curd, sea air, with a honeyed undertone and a whisper of spicy oak. Full-bodied fruit on the palate with a taut, vibrant acid frame, clean fruit-driven acid finish. Just a lovely wine, neither France nor California but a third way.
