Vineyard Notes: Sustainably farmed, cool climate site, river cobbles and Goldridge loam soils.  Very rainy winter ending a string of drought years. Yield of 3.9 tons per acre. We harvested the grapes September 11th.

Winemaker’s Tasting Notes: Barrel fermented in neutral French oak and aged for 16 months sur lees. Golden honey in color. Rich nose full of banana runts, guava, licorice, pineapple and orange rind. Background notes of jasmine and paper whites. Mouthful of ripe pear, orange cream-sicle, lime, liquid minerals, and peach liqueur. Finishes long and bright with hints of lemon meringue, citrus and a touch of tarragon.
