TASTING NOTE: This wine was matured in French oak barriques and shows an impressive balance of richness and elegance. Suggestions of buttered toast, grilled pineapple and caramel apple on the nose. The palate shows ripe apple and citrus, with bright acidity and a long, tangy-toasty finish. Drink through 2023 with grilled seafood or pork chops. (Vintages panel, April 2019) |
