  Made with Moscato Bianco grapes that are dried on the vine and harvested in multiple passes. Bright, medium gold in color, with intense aromas of orange zest, apricots, white flowers, honey, cardamon, Asian spices and baking spices. It sees at least one year of aging in small new oak barriques. The nose is developing. The medium (+) sweet palate is lush, but nicely balanced by medium to medium (+) acidity. The 13% alcohol is a testament to the ripeness and richness of the grapes at the time of harvest. Overall, this is a youthful, intensely-flavored dessert wine, with a long and surprisingly refreshing finish. Drink now through 2028.

  Ripe tropical fruit, floral notes, spices on the nose. On the palate good acidity, nice rich- and sweetness. Lacks a bit of depth and length, but balanced and well made. 88-90
