TASTING NOTES
“A full, fragrant nose displays orange blossoms and apricot marked with citrus hues. The palate is greeted
by creamy lemon which develops into a midpalate splashed with Honeycrisp apple before resolving into a
pleasing, slightly honeyed finish.”
VINTAGE OVERVIEW
The 2020 growing season was marked by low yields, hot summer weather, and sufficient fall hang time to
produce wines with intense aromatics and concentrated flavors. After a typical bud break in mid-April and
moderate temperatures through May, conditions cooled in June. July and August were hot, but the weather
cooled again in September to slow ripening enough to give the grapes extra time on the vine to ripen fully
