Taste profile
On the palate
Orchard fruit and yellow plum lead into a fresh, pithy palate layered with lime and lemon. Ripe acidity keeps the fruit vibrant, while a delicate potpourri perfume lingers through the finish. Those who enjoy dry Riesling with citrus precision and a gentle floral lift will find plenty to explore here.
