The nose exudes intense fruit characteristics ranging from ripe peach and apricot to tropical lychee and wet stone aromas. Powerful and complex flavors contrasted by a pure and refined structure.

DESCRIPTION/REVIEWS:
"Tight and focused, delivering a beam of lime, citrus and green apple fruit that's crisp and lively, gaining depth and a minerally nuance on the long finish. Drink now through 2012. 1,562 cases made." --Wine Spectator--93 pts
The 2006 vintage is balanced with a tense acid structure providing finesse and purity. The mouth feel is broad and seamless giving way to a serious finish. The wine expresses an abundance of Hyde Vineyard fruit while maintaining the trademark minerality. Recommended pairing with a wild mushroom or seafood risotto.
