Description:
In 2003, median bud break occurred March 11. Median bloom was May 15 and median veraison was reached July 29. Harvest was September 1 through 14 with the yield of 1.5 tons per acre. Fermentation was sur lie in French Oak barrels; 50% were new. The wine was not allowed to go through malolactic fermentation.
The wine has rich exotic fruit flavors of guava, melon and mango. There is a lovely creamy texture with bright acidity and a long, intense lemon/lime and mineral finish. The French Oak adds toast and nutmeg flavors which are integrated in the wine, adding an additional layer of complexity. The fruit, acid and spice are very well balanced and delicious.
