TASTING NOTE: Half barrel fermented, and all oak-aged (roughly two-thirds new), this cloaks the lush fruit flavors of pineapple, peach and nectarine in a wash of caramel. The wine remains well proportioned, with acids and barrel toast playing a supporting role. Score - 89 (Paul Gregutt, Wine Enthusiast, March 1, 2017) |
