Alder Springs Petite Arvine Single Vineyard Series

TASTING NOTE:

2022 Ernest Vineyards Alder Springs Petite Arvine is a pale-yellow wine with white gold hues. It offers a discreet aromatic profile with floral and fruity notes, including Asian pears, lychee, and cantaloupe, followed by exotic aromas of Jackfruit, papaya, and pink grapefruit, with underlying mineral notes. The palate is clean, refreshing, and subtly sweet, featuring candied kumquats, tangerines, hints of tree sap, and pine needles. It shows no oak influence, ensuring a pure expression of the varietal. Fresh acidity and mineral components lead to a long, pleasant finish, with floral tones emerging over time.
