The nose offers aromas of peach, pineapple, and pear that meld with allusions of buttery oak, spice, and vanilla. Stone fruits, pineapples, and pears emerge on the palate, along with elements of toasty oak, butter, and floral spice. Slightly creamy, with a welcoming acidity, enjoy a glass with crab cakes.

Aromatics of black cherries, strawberries, and plums mingle with suggestions of white pepper, sweet spice, and rose petals on the nose. A sip reveals flavors of cherry, plum and strawberry, which unfold into undertones of white pepper, minerals, and vanilla. Nicely structured with compelling layers, roast duck would make a lovely companion.
