  We have always liked this vineyard, but this was a 10 year old dessert wine. I think this is one of the best dessert wines I have had in the last couple years. 10 years of aging made this very good.
  The wine looks straw colored. The legs are medium. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like lemon, lime, apricot, mango and passion fruit. It tastes like lemon, raisin, apricot and pineapple. The body is light/medium. The wine has satin-like texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

  Smells super delicious and fun. Bright white pear, apple cider show in the nose, just strong, sweet fruit aromas. The palate shows those white pears with some pineapples and orange melon flavors. Super sweet but with enough backing acidity to keep it refreshing. While this is very straight-forward, it's a style I could see anyone finding delicious. Made of a combination of Semillon, Sylvaner and Pinot Gris.
