This deep yellow wine is exotically perfumed, offering scents of candied mango, ripe papaya, lime peel and lemon curd. It tastes as zesty as it sounds, with a perky and pithy palate that also shows nuances of almond and earth. Buxom and hippy, there’s a lot of stuffing to this wine’s midpalate, while the flavors are full-impact and the finish hangs around. It’s drinking well now but has the depth of flavor and length of finish to suggest it can hang on well for a bit longer. Enjoy now through 2017.
