Pale gold color, with a pretty, floral, honeyed nose. Rich, but not overly sweet, it offers peach and apricot with hints of cucumber, honey, mineral and a subtle herbaceousness, all with good acids and just a smidgen of heat. (It weighs in at 16-18%, but not because it is fermented that way; they add alcohol to stop the fermentation.) (Dan) Farley (of J et R Selections, the wine's importer) says that this one is made not to please Parker, but to please the winemaker’s mother-in-law. We like it quite well, so chances are, she does too!
