Made Zuni roast chicken with bread salad, so I felt it was only appropriate to bring this one out for the occasion. Complex fruit profile on the nose - lemon, apple, melon, pineapple, ginger - plus white flowers, with oak contributing a balanced bit of coconut and cream. Creamy mouthfeel with great acid on the back end- fresh and bright yet complex. I’d prefer a slight dialing back of the oak on this wine but that’s really just a matter of taste - this is a super well-made wine.
