Tasting Notes

Don’t be fooled by the delicate peachy pink color of this powerhouse. The aroma takes you back to childhood summers picking peaches off the tree, with sticky nectar dripping from your hand, while a subtle freesia scent teases in the background (cue Miranda Priestly).

The palate solidly delivers what the nose promises; homemade peach jam cooking on the stove with exactly the right balance of acid to avoid any cloying buildup. Summer is arriving soon; be ready with an ample supply of this summer staple to pair with cool desert evenings celebrating friends, music and food.
