A hauntingly delicious wine. A gorgeous golden hue beckons from your glass. Seducing aromas of honeysuckle and buttered brioche. Spicy ginger notes compliment the tropical guava and passion fruit, while crisp apples and pears brighten and balance the rich texture. Lingering and long, the finish whispers of crème brûlée and caramel, left behind by barrel fermentation and sur lie aging.
