Pale straw, green hues. Very expressive varietal character. Summer stone fruits, yellow peach, and white nectarine. Ripe loquats poached in syrup. Japanese persimmon and golden delicious apple add further layers of complexity. Passionfruits emerge, kept in check by lemon/lime citrus notes. The palate delivers on the nose. Packham pear with slices of just-ripe Fuji apples. A hint of frangipani. Honey ice-cream nuances provide palate weight. There is a lovely phenolic grip, with a rich, lingering palate.
