C: golden straw, still some sediment

N: A lighter, almost candied fruitiness appears, but this nose is a bit more muted at this stage with a nice crispness of white fruit, pineapple, citrus and a savory almost gaminess that adds complexity and character

P: Another wine from LH with a sensuous mouthfeel. Beautiful fruit that comes from the nose and then some some more almost smoky umami. Finishes clean with banana, white fruit and great focus, and an interesting mix of creaminess and acidity. Very good.

Color: lighter golden straw

Nose: Great pear and peach, followed by some wonderful pineapple and blossoms of florals. Some creaminess and lemon custard here too.

Palate: Full-bodied with intense pineapple flavors that seem sweet and yet the wine finishes nicely crisp with a little cream underneath and further tropical fruit from the nose. Very good!
