Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

Creamy aromas of lemon curd and baked soft cheese overlay notes of peppercorn, forest floor, and blanched almonds. This Espadin is ultra-refined on the palate with hints of brown sugar, leather, and fresh-shucked corn that overlay notes of pink peppercorn and pine wood. Wow!
