Light, bright gold. A heady, floral-dominated bouquet evokes yellow peach, pear, acacia honey and jasmine, plus a touch of smokiness. Juicy and taut, with focused pit and orchard fruit flavors that show surprising depth. A hint of bitter lemon pith adds bite and urgency to the long, sappy finish. There's lots going on here already but this wine is built to age.
