Tasting Notes

Brilliant straw color with silver highlights at the rim. The wine is aromatic with notes of yellow apple, nearly ripe peach, fresh pear, and wet stone. On the richly balanced palate, ripe apple and pear notes give way to riper tropical fruits of mango and pineapple, filling out the midpalate. As the finish approaches, vanilla, toasted almond, and baking spice enter with light herbal notes and refreshing acidity that invites another sip.

Food pairings -It’s great to drink on its own or paired with a variety of dishes from a roasted chicken breast with a lemon and rosemary sauce or a creamy fettuccine alfredo finished with a lemon zest accent.

Winemaking – Landmark uses the most time and labor-intensive techniques to produce our wines. Grapes are aged in French oak barrels, where naturally occurring wild yeasts ferment the juice. This creates complex, aromatic wines with deep, expressive flavors.
