Review

Medium-light golden yellow color; attractive, forward, toasty, slightly buttery, baked apple aroma with mineral notes and hints of lemon and roasted hazelnut; medium-full body; crisp, bright, lemony, fleshy, pear and apple flavors with good depth and persistence; well balanced and firmly structured; lingering aftertaste. Very enjoyable to drink now, showing well integrated fruit and oak, and should continue to develop with a few more years of bottle aging. Very highly recommended.
