"Bright onion skin. Sharply focused orange pith and peach aromas, along with a hint of anise. Juicy and focused on the palate, offering tangerine, white peach and strawberry flavors that slowly fan out through the midpalate. Finishes smooth and broad, with good length and no rough edges. - Josh Raynolds"
