This wine is fragrant and clean with exotic melon, apricot, yellow plum and nectarine with floral and beeswax aromas rounding it out. The palate continues with floral notes and a honeyed quality with touches of chamomile and almond skin. This is weighty with spice notes reminiscent of gewürztraminer yet it remains restrained with plenty of acidity and a long finish. This wine is delicious and worth appreciation.
