Context

In the cup, this lot presents a refined sweetness reminiscent of apricot and white peach, balanced by a smooth, sweet cream finish. While individual experiences can vary, those looking to better understand these nuances may find the flavor wheel a helpful tool for identifying specific sensory markers. By focusing on the clean, bright qualities inherent to the washed method, this offering provides a classic representation of the region’s potential, showcasing a sophisticated interplay between stone fruit brightness and a creamy, lingering mouthfeel.
