INTERNATIONAL WINE CELLAR – JOSH RAYNOLDS

Pale orange-pink color. Intriguing aromas of white peach, vanilla, pear, lees and lily of the valley. Smooth in texture, with rich pit and orchard fruit flavors, a touch of nougat and a kick of smoky minerals. Creamy and only hinting at red fruits, but displays striking depth. Finishes with impressive punch and lingering sweetness. If I had tasted this from a black glass I would have called it a white Burgundy. Really wild stuff. (Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA) 91 points – ($13.33)
