Description

Tasting Note:
Subtle flashes of peach burst above the blossom-honey nose of this wine. Uniting peach and honey in a rounded fashion, the palate gives just a tiny edge of honeycomb bitterness to counter that juicy, mellow flow. The delicacy of the aromas stays throughout and make for a super smooth finish.
