The medium+ intensity nose offers an exotic candied ginger, orange blossom, citrus and white peach in a honeyed profile that also comes through in the off-dry palate. This has crisp, balanced acids that are a touch tart. Finish length is excellent. A perennially lovely wine to enjoy over the next 5 years. Tasted Sept/2017. Score: 89+ pts
