This wine reflects the unique characteristics of a cool vintage with its dominant minerality and acidity. Its ocean-influenced style offers a sea breeze-like freshness with a medium-plus body and toasty caramel notes. Creamy oak notes accent the palate as flavors of citrus, grapefruit, lemon curd, and honeysuckle unfold and give way to a long, mineral finish. This wine is the perfect accompaniment for oysters, trout, sea bass, or any dish that requires a wine with a little more body.
