Tasting Notes: Aromas of grapefruit and a hint of lemongrass practically leap from the glass. The palate is crisp and clean, with flavors of citrus, apple and tropical fruits. A blend of barrel and stainless-steel fermentation add a supple creaminess to the mouthfeel and hint of oak on the finish. Clean and lasting finish; very refreshing and enjoyable.
