Nose
Intense fruit aromas of ripe pear and orange liqueur, complemented by toasty oak.
Palate
Complex pear, apple and citrus flavors give way to a full-bodied texture and a long finish.
Winemaking
Separately vinified vineyard lots showing the most complex fruit were selected for further aging on the lees. Each component contributes a unique clone and microclimate signature to the blend.
Aging
35% in new French oak, 65% in 2nd and 3rd fill barrels.
Food Pairing
Try with shellfish, cream soups, chicken, veal, or rich pasta dishes.
