A medium gold coloured, medium/full-bodied mouthful of luscious delight! A citrus, pineapple and slightly nutty nose leads on to a flavour explosion of lemon cream, pineapple, hazelnut and vanilla oak, balanced beautifully with fine acidity and followed by a long, complex finish. It has a lovely creamy texture, and a very satisfying mouth feel. It will definitely keep for several more years yet, and in addition it doesn't break the bank either at around $30. A splendid effort from Jim Clendenen, one of America's most respected winemakers. Very French in style and absolutely delicious! (03/10)
