A clear and bright wine with hints of lime and gold. The nose has aromas of apricot, green apple and citrus with subtle oak spice and floral notes. The palate is vibrant and juicy with a creamy texture and a lime finish.
The wine was barrel fermented with a 4% concrete portion and occasional lees stirring was done for the first three months to fill out the mid palate. The final blend has 4% Concrete and 8% new French oak with the remainder being in seasoned barrels for 4 months.
