Dark gold in color and mightily textured, this lovely wine is medium-bodied and salty in pear, mango an pineapple. The flavors are subdued and nuanced, finding their way within layers of acidity and refined oak.

Golden Delicious apple is the star in this wine, accented with a touch of honey. Despite the appearance of rocky minerality on the back of the palate, it exudes a robust, full-figured personality, lush and plush with a persistence of ginger on the finish.

Tastes too oaky and extracted, making the sweet wood, butterscotch, pear jam, peach cobbler and pineapple custard flavors a little obvious. But it will satisfy fans of this style.
