The nose opens with citrus zest, green apple, pear, vanilla, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, flavors of ripe peach, orchard fruit, honey, caramel, and vanilla mingle with gentle baking spice and toasted oak. The Sauvignon Blanc barrel influence provides a bright, slightly tart fruit character before a smooth finish of citrus, vanilla, sweet oak, and lingering spice.
