This invitingly rich and generous wine boasts layers of character from its first fruit-driven aromas to its scents of toasty oak and roasted grains and is both juicy and complex at one and the same time. Its flavors benefit from a slight rounding of its texture, and its balance manages to be wholly supportive without relying on bristling acidity. The overall effect makes the wine into a happy mate to richer dishes like grilled salmon fillets or roasted chicken with pan gravy.

Round and lush, this offers soft layers of vanilla, French toast and tarte Tatin. Expansive on the palate, it maintains acidity and a freshness that keeps it inviting in the glass, concocting appealing aromas of lemon chiffon.
