Winemaker tasting notes

“The wine displays lovely notes of lemon zest, ripe pear, and a hint of brioche on the nose. On the palate this wine reveals nuances of white nectarine, fresh apple pie, lemon meringue, and crème brûlée. Aged in our cellar to enhance complexity and development, this cuvée presents the classic long and round toasty flavor that Domaine Carneros is known for.”
