Review:
One is greeted by aromas of grapefruits, peaches, and apricots, along with accents of honeysuckle on the nose. Flavors of ruby grapefruit, melon, and peach envelop the palate, moving into expressions of white flowers and thyme. There's nice fruit here that's lifted by a fresh acidity and solid complexity for its price point. Well worth checking out.
