Taste Description

On the nose, the 2023 vintage offers a complex array of white stone fruit, nectarine, and a hint of toasted cashew. The palate is generously flavored but strictly poised, with a creamy mouthfeel balanced by a flinty, citrus-driven acidity. It is an ideal candidate for immediate enjoyment alongside creamy poultry dishes or roasted Atlantic salmon.
