“This full-bodied, barrel-fermented wine has a hefty mouthfeel and silky smooth texture, backing up quite ripe Bartlett pears, brioche and light vanilla flavors with good, vibrant acidity that keeps it fresh and lingering on the finish. Great when you want more than simple refreshment. Drink or hold.”
