Gentle aromas of red apple, citrus and ginger are backed by nuances of grass and tomato leaf. While the palate is crisp and refreshing, there's a subtle texture and tingly acidity that add interest. The apple and citrus flavors linger delicately on the finish.
Vinous

Pale, green-tinged yellow. Lemon pith, dried pear and beeswax on the nose, along with a subtle fennel nuance. Supple and broad on the palate, offering ripe orchard and citrus fruit flavors that slowly firm up through the back half. The fennel note returns on a persistent finish that's given grip by a bitter quinine note.

Lean and crisp, with celery leaf, lemon zest and lime juice flavors that are intense and lip-smacking. A whiff of lanolin lingers on the finish. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now. 20,000 cases imported.
