Tasting Notes

Very pale straw color. The nose is complex and compelling offering scents of steamed and dried rice with subtle grain tones and soft tropical fruits in support. The palate is in agreement with the nose delivering a supreme balance of rich, silky rice forward flavors with dry mineral notes. Ideally balanced with a clean but lingering finish.
