TASTING NOTE: On the nose, luscious peach notes are slightly muddied by earthier notes. On the palate, generous sweetness boosts all the fruit flavors to an intense lusciousness. There is balance in the form of lemony freshness and a lovely tangy texture. This is momentarily quite intense. Score - 91 (Anne Krebiehl, MW, Wine Enthusiast, April 1, 2017) |
