Julian Hitner: Review of 2012 Ava

Pale-light lime in colour with a touch of straw, the 2012 Ava offers delightful scents of honeyed apricots, lemon, marzipan, melon, and a hint of wet stones and vanillin. Complex, with impressive fruit orientation, balanced acidity, and a lovely hint of honeyed apricots and nuts on the finish. Delicious personality, balance, and overall freshness. Viognier, Roussanne, and Marsanne. Now-2015+.
