Selecting only the best barrels from the vintage, the 2021 Bon Vivant sports a gorgeous light, but moves to a medium lemon core with a silvery rim in the glass. Starting off with some crushed rock and flint minerality on the nose, it follows up with notes of grilled lemon, fresh white peach, warm allspice, and hints of cedary herbs. Elegant and refined on the palate, the lush mouthfeel pops with stone-fruit goodness and shades of white grapefruit citrus, ending with a toasty cinnamon aspect on the back palate. Highly recommended.
