Quince preserves and overripe Persian melon inform an effusive nose and a richly fruited, creamy yet juicy and buoyant palate. Heady scents of lily translate into liquid perfume; candied ginger offers welcome counterpoint; and hints of crème caramel are, like the wine’s jellied fruit aspects, reinforced by prominent but in no way excessive sweetness. The lusciously lingering finish supplies a surprising amount of sheer juiciness to accompany its confitured and liquidly floral richness.
