Smokey, pithy and ripe with notes of grilled pineapple, cinnamon toast and crème brulee.

Reduced oak settles in the glass to unleash juicy flavors of Gravenstein apple, lemon, grapefruit and white flower. Gravelly texture gives it context and complexity that buoys the full-bodied frame and allows for persistent acidity.

Excellent, Highly Recommended 
Opens with aromas of lemon curd, green apple, and fresh-churned butter. On the palate, it’s round with fresh acidity. A note of sweet milk and hint of coriander seed comes through on the finish.
