Walter Scott, like the novelist. Pale white, excellent clarity. Aromas of Granny Smith apples and citrus. Nice acidity, body, rounded mouthfeel, syrupy viscosity, dried peach and orange flavors. Mineral and lactic finish. Paired perfectly with roasted chicken and winter garden grown baby potatoes and carrots plus some store bought yellow bell peppers. An enjoyable wine; wish it was cheaper and in greater supply.

Very reduced initially - some manure notes. With air it becomes much more pleasant, moving into struck match, lemon pith and orchard fruit, mineral and bright acid ⚡️

Nice, small production wine. Medium body, crisp. Lots of apples and citrus.
