    From a handful of vineyards, this wine showcases good blending skills in its ability to offer crisp grapefruit, apricot and green apple atop a creamy texture and neutral oak structure. It's light, bright and ready for the table.

  • 2013

    Wet stone and a chalky underbelly of crisp, clean and low-oaked fruit entices in this food-friendly wine, elegant in lemon, lime and green apple. Juicy and well-rounded, it's an easily enjoyable wine at a fair price that will please a range of palates.

    It conveys lots of ripe, forward citrus, pear and green apple flavors. Oak plays only a supporting role, with crisp acidity and creamy lees co-starring with the fruit.

  • 2011

    Oaky and bone dry, with ripe pineapple, green apple and buttered toast flavors, brightened by zesty, mouthwatering acidity. Ready now, but don't chill too much to enjoy the nuances.
