Tasting Notes
"A light and vibrant nose offers plenty of floral character, with lavender, light vanilla, and oak. The palate starts dry and oaky, but quickly shifts to rich walnuts and prunes, with overripe apples, and chewy dried apricots. The finish is short and light with cinnamon and raisins, and is overall sweeter than the palate. Overall an enjoyable, delicate easy sipper."
