Tasting Notes:
PDFLush and expressive, the 2024 Cymbal opens with vibrant aromas of passion fruit, guava, and honeysuckle. The palate is ripe and richly textured, offering layers of tropical fruit, Meyer lemon, and a hint of lemongrass. Bright acidity keeps the wine fresh and focused, extending the exotic fruit notes through a smooth, lingering finish.
