A wine with the color of a golden braid. Captivating and complex on the nose, it moves beyond simple fruit. Floral, herbal and savory notes make this wine particularly memorable with hints of honeysuckle, limoncello, lemon sage, lanolin, thyme liqueur and celery seed. There is a cornucopia of fruit present, in the form of papaya, persimmon, green banana, melon, dried peach & pineapple heart. Complementing this we taste macadamia nut meat, pine-nuts and seaweed. The finish follows with sage butter, citrus and a positive, waxy quality. Firm acidity, brisk phenolics and moderate alcohol.
TASTING NOTES
Toasty notes of warm balsa wood and crème Brule mix with ripe Meyer lemon, Golden Delicious apple, apricots and just a hint of baking spices on the nose. Round, mouth-filling and intensely satisfying, the palate is redolent of ripe apples, Bosc pear and lemon rind with an underlying creaminess.
