100% Petit Manseng. Pale lemon in color, this wine displays pronounced aromas of pineapple, grapefruit, honeysuckle, orange blossom, and delicate white flowers with hints of ripe peach and citrus zest. The palate is generous and expressive with flavors of pineapple, ripe pear, baked peach, lemon curd, grapefruit, honey, and candied citrus accented by subtle vanilla and baking spice from partial barrel fermentation. Off-dry with medium-plus acidity, medium-plus body, medium-plus flavor intensity, and a long finish, the wine is rich and beautifully textured, with vibrant acidity balancing its moderate residual sweetness. The combination of stainless steel fermentation preserves freshness and aromatic purity, while barrel fermentation contributes a creamy mid-palate and added complexity. Seamlessly balanced and highly expressive.
Food Pairing: Thai curry, glazed ham, grilled shrimp, roast pork, spicy Asian cuisine, aged Gouda, peach tart, crème brûlée, blue cheese
