Have yet to taste a bad vintage of this. Deep straw or gold in the glass. Highly aromatic. Pineapple, baked apricot, and honey. Bold with firm acidic structure. Fruit, minerality, and backbone. Screaming for Al Pastor tacos.

Beautiful amber color; complex fruity nose with light herbs; full mouth feel balances high alcohol with great acid and big flavor and somewhat creamy feel. Ripe apricot with other stone fruit peeking thru (peach, maybe yellow plum); outstanding saline minerals, complex herbal (marjoram-like) and floral interplay all combine for a wall-of-sound effect. One of my favorite white wines ever, good by itself and great with a wide variety of food.

N: peach, melon, lemon zest
P: more zesty on the palate, with a little herb, and stones on the finish
