Aromas of apricot and cantaloupe pave the way for flavors of apricot, apple and smoked meat with a touch of river rocks. This wine feels a little stiff at first sip, but as it opens up to a pleasing combination of fruit and savory flavors that lead to a soft guava finish.

This wine is a delight to the nose and mouth, with aromas of passion fruit and honeysuckle that are followed by flavors of lemon angel-food cake, vanilla ice cream and orange sorbet. It's soft and refreshing on the palate, and it closes with a zesty floral and spice backsplash.

Forward aromas and flavors of yellow apple, peach flesh and orange rind lead this wine, with secondary highlights of oaky spice and toast that add depth to the palate. The mouthfeel is round and filling, with fresh acidity and a medium-length finish. Kosher.
