Straw yellow, brilliant clarity; Intense lifted nose, displaying a wonderful complexity of flavors—honey suckle, orange blossom, jasmine tea, almond kernels, fennel, lemon and freshly harvested honeycomb. The palate is full, polished and balanced with flavors of citrus, peach and apricots. The texture is succulent and creamy complemented by a steely minerality. Serve with natural oysters dressed in Champagne vinaigrette, dayboat scallops in tarragon butter, roast pork loin, and cheese soufflé. Enjoy now through 2010.
