Delicate yet decisive nose showing sweet pear and white peach fruit with a some white pepper freshness. The palate shows rounded ripe pear and peach fruit and attractive pepperiness. I love the combination of sweet grapey, fruity richness with the fresh pepper notes. There\u2019s even a hint of thyme here.
