Tasting Panel, 96 Points
"The palate of this rich and luxurious wine is sparked by jasmine and sea salt. From an elevation of 2,200 feet, it showcases limestone soil through a line of flint that runs through its core. Lemon verbena and a billowy mouthfeel keep the exquisite parade marching."
Wine Enthusiast, 94 Points
"Light aromas of honeysuckle, sea salt, white peach and nectarine show on the nose of this classic bottling, from a 2,200-foot-high vineyard. There is a strong streak of limestone flavor to the sip, with warmer hints of white peach and toast."
Winemaker Notes:
"Grown high on the limestone-rich soils of Mt. Harlan, this wine is an aromatic beauty, revealing layers of white peach, fresh-cut grass, lavender and lemon verbena. Though rich and round on the palate, its cool-climate origins ensure a lively underlying acidity that provides focus and finesse to tropical flavors of guava, pineapple and vanilla bean."
Alcohol: 14.5%
