Nose

Sweet brioche and coconut husk aromatics create mouth watering visions in your mind.

Palate

The acidity of the mid-palate helps to balance the unctuous stone fruit juice flavors. Slowly dissipating on the palate, lemon zest oil becomes a hint of honeydew, before one is left with the essence of wet stone.

Growing Conditions

Vineyards: Berlenbach Vineyard, Atlas Peak Vineyard

Winemaking

The whole-cluster grapes, harvested at 24.8 brix, were barrel-fermented on native yeasts and aged in 100% new François Frères French oak barrels for 10 months. The wine also progressed through 100% malolactic fermentation without fining or filtration.
