Made in a rich, full-bodied, wooded style, this has an intense aroma of ripe apples, lime and pears with hints of tropical fruit, beautifully enhanced by subtle tones of well-integrated oak.

"Medium-intense aromas of pink apple, orange rind, walnut shell and yellow flower dance on the nose of this enticing white. Well-balanced, the medium-weight mouthfeel offers ripe citrus, peach and melon flavors that are complemented by a soft accent of dried apple skin.
