The nose opens with buttery walnuts, and baked apples and evolves into Meyer lemons, and controlled pineapple. A hint of Pouilly Fuisse or Macon oak treatment, but just enough to spice up the bright fruits. Acidity keeps everything in check.

Green apples, honeysuckle, and pear. Citrusy and refreshing. A very nice, refreshing wine.

Citrus with mild butter notes. Not a typical Cali butter bomb

Elegant structure, nice malo creamy notes, tingly finish, lightly toasted bread and butter. You'll think it's Sonoma - well played
