Honeysuckle and white peach open the nose, with accents of white flowers and oranges. Softly herbal up front, the palate gives way to rich tropical fruits , fresh lime, and a lingering kiwi finish.
Food Pairing: Any fresh fruit dessert will be complimented by a glass of this late harvest treat. With the wines' soft sweetness, an olive oil lemon zest cake or tropical fruit tart will shine. Add a whipped soft cheese, such as feta or chevre, and enjoy the rich balance and complexity of the wine.
