  • Tasting notes: Fuji apple, cantaloupe and Asian pear aromas on the nose give way to balanced fruit and acidity on the palate. A hint of creaminess, caramelized apple from the barrel-aged portion marries perfectly with the fresh apple, Meyer lemon and cantaloupe flavors of the stainless counterpart.

  • Pairs well with crab, lobster and a variety of goat cheeses.
