Tasting Notes
This white blend opens with bright aromas of white peach, honeysuckle, and citrus zest, layered with subtle notes of pear, jasmine, and wet stone. On the palate, it's dry, medium-bodied, and vibrant, featuring flavors of lemon curd, green apple, and ripe melon. A soft texture carries through to a clean, mineral-driven finish.
Winemaker Notes
Aromas

Crisp and expressive with balanced acidity; showcases citrus and stone fruit, supported by a silky texture and subtle herbal lift.
Finish
-
Long and refreshing, with lingering minerality and a zesty citrus close.
The blend includes a mix of cool-climate varieties (typically Pinot Blanc, Gewürztraminer, Riesling, and/or Auxerrois, depending on vintage expression), fermented in stainless steel to preserve purity and aromatic intensity.
