2008 Caymus Conundrum

In honor of the early spring weather, we opened a bottle of the 2008 Caymus Conundrum to have before dinner last night.

In the glass, it was a pale lemon color with medium intense aromas of honeysuckle, apricot and lemon-butter. It had a medium body with medium + acidity and alcohol (13.5% abv) with flavors of peach, pear, vanilla, oak and honey with a medium length finish.
A good wine priced at $19.
