14.5% alc., pH 3.68, TA 0.50, $44. Aged 11 months in French oak barrels, 40% new. · Light golden yellow color in the glass. The nose is flat out amazing with soaring scents of lemon, golden apple juice and honey. Impeccably crafted, with vivid flavors of pineapple, juicy yellow apple, spice, buttered toast and honey. Silky smooth in the mouth, with a dreamy finish that has serious length. A superb wine. Score: 94. Reviewed September 7, 2016
