Terrior
Paso Robles is characterized by its warm Mediterranean climate, with long sunny days and cool nights that help grapes ripen fully while retaining acidity. The diverse soils, including limestone and shale, provide a mineral foundation and depth to the wine, enhancing the aromatics and adding a touch of structure to the fruit-forward profile.

Appearance
Pale gold with a slight golden hue, clear and bright, suggesting freshness with a touch of richness.

Nose
The nose is highly aromatic, showcasing notes of apricot, orange blossom, and white peach. Hints of tropical fruits like pineapple, along with a touch of honey and floral notes, reveal Malvasia’s characteristic aromatic intensity, complemented by subtle herbal nuances from the blend.

Palate
The palate is medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and a smooth, rounded texture. Flavors of ripe citrus, stone fruit, and lychee are balanced by a delicate minerality. The blend adds complexity with hints of melon and a touch of spice, creating a layered profile with both freshness and depth.

Finish
The finish is clean and lingering, with bright citrus, floral notes, and a slight mineral edge that leaves a refreshing impression.

Overall Impression
