Nose
The nose features vibrant floral aromatics balanced against honeysuckle, apricots, ripe peaches, and just a hint of kiwi.
Palate
The palate is rich and round, with fresh acidity and lingering touches of citrus in the finish.
Growing Conditions
Saralee’s Vineyard in the Russian River Valley is an extremely unique growing site. The vines are terraced in a concentric circle around a small hill, which offers many different exposures and impart a complex aromatic profile to the fruit. After gently pressing the grapes, the wine was fermented in 100% neutral French oak barrels, with partial malolactic fermentation being utilized as well. The wine was then barrel aged in neutral French oak for 9 months prior to bottling.
