Straw yellow with small, delicate bubbles. Very toasty, yeasty, bready aromas around light golden apple, a touch of caramelized pear and raw honey. Dry entry on the palate with silky bubbles. Crisp apple and pear surround honeyed biscuit. Medium bodied with a nice citrus zest finish.

Pale, bright steely gold color. Light pear and apple aromas are joined by caramel, baking spices and wet stones with a lingering touch of ripe nectarines. Round and creamy on the entry with a warm, toasty apple cobbler mid-palate. Full bodied with great balance. Long, lingering butterscotch flavor.

Medium ruby core with a paler ruby rim. Cola and sweet black cherry aromas are surrounded by wet earth and stone with a spicy orange zest note and a hint of creamy caramel. Voluptuous on the palate. Soft up front with rich fruit building to a solid core of fruit acid and sort tannins. The finish is very long with creamy, toasty oak layered over black cherries. Great now and will improve for another 2-5 years easily.

Bright lemon yellow core, getting paler towards the rim. Very toasty aromas up front. Myer Lemon curd with a touch of butter, toasted almonds and a hint of slate. Very good acidity on the palate, and a good balance of fruit and oak. Bid lemon lollipop flavors with a touch of lime and yellow apple lingering into the creamy finish.
