With its restrained bouquet of lemon curd, lime zest, honey and lightly toasted oak giving way to full flavors of mineral, honeydew, and pineapple, it maintains its bright personality and finishes with toasted almond.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAged 16 months in French oak (50% new); 14.5% alcohol; bottled April 2013; 81 cases produced.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003chr style=\"width: 100%; height: 2px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eRatings \u0026amp; Reviews\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWine Spectator:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The intense white peach, nectarine and honeydew melon notes show a hint of lees and tannins, lending this a raw texture.

Its light gold color is followed by notes of poached pears, caramelized citrus and ripe beach, medium body, and a beguiling richness and length that builds in the mouth.
