The colour is pale straw to light gold and has an interesting nose made up of tropical fruits (guava and papaya) in addition to flavours of quince, golden delicious apples, white peaches and exotic honey. These aromas carry onto the medium-bodied palate where they explode in intensity and are joined by beautiful notes of white flowers and a vibrant, lemony-citrus character. It will pair nicely with Pacific Rim cuisine, especially Sushi, oysters, and seafood.
Honest John’s Red has an intense aromatic profile with black and red cherry, blueberry, and cracked pepper, along with delicate notes of vanilla, clove, and orange blossom. These flavours carry onto the medium-bodied palate, where the rich texture and soft tannins combine to produce a delicious, fruity wine that calls out for good friends around a BBQ.
