On the nose, notes of ripe golden apple, white peach, and Meyer lemon entwine with subtle hints of toasted hazelnuts and a delicate wisp of vanilla. The palate is greeted by a blend of luscious orchard fruits and citrus zest, supported by a subtle creaminess from its expertly managed neutral oak fermentation. Layers of complexity emerge as flavors of honeyed pear, crème brûlée, and a touch of flint unfold gracefully, leading to a long, vibrant finish.
