| Notes | "A graceful, seamlessly integrated white, this offers distinctive flavors in an almost ethereal package. Floral and honey notes lace green almond, dried cherry and plum skin flavors, while delicate acidity and a tang of salinity imparts focus through the aromatic finish. Drink now through 2024. 1,916 cases made." (Wine Spectator) | |||
Additional Notes "Aromas of peach, citrus peel, coriander and mint. Then bright and fresh, with a saline, almost chewy quality on the palate. A very successful wine, finishing with repeating notes of delicately spicy white stone fruits, flowers and fresh herbs. Made from incrocio Manzoni, a crossing of riesling and pinot bianco." (Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar) |
