The nose is instantly welcoming, exploding with a vibrant bouquet of honeyed pear, crisp golden apple, and a burst of luscious tropical fruits, accented by subtle, sophisticated top notes of grapefruit peel and wet stones.

Meticulously hand harvested in the cool early morning hours, the juice is cold fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged on its fine lees.
