Tasting Notes:
This full-bodied wine presents a round and slightly oxidative palate, featuring baked yellow apples and lemon pith as dominant flavors, with subtle hints of toast and wildflowers adding complexity. Balanced with medium-plus acidity and a slight oak influence, it offers a rich and well-structured finish. Ideal pairings include shrimp, flatfish like sole or flounder, and white fish dishes, which complement the wine's crisp, rich texture. It also pairs beautifully with swordfish, trout, scallops, and even beef if needed for a heartier option. Creamy dishes, especially those with mushrooms or truffles further enhance its richness. For cheese pairings, consider Brie-style cheeses or spruce-wrapped cheeses like Harbison and Rush Creek Reserve, which are domestic versions of this wines natural pairing, Vacherin Mont d'Or.
