Description

Orange Blossom by Joe Malone London


One bottle (1oz) of "Orange Blossom" by Joe Malone                                       
A shimmering garden oasis. Clementine flower sparkles over orange blossom and water lily, with warm undertones of orris and balsamic vetiver. A cologne that captures the wildness of honeysuckle, winding through the English countryside.


Fragrance story: Climbing. Twisting. Ever more alluring after dark. Fresh with rose and the aromatic, fruity twist of davana. Woody with moss. Warmed by sunshine. Clementine flower begins the fragrance. The sparkling floral accord opens the scent with bittersweet transparency. White lilac defines the heart. It is a spring floral with a subtle spicy facet that enhances the shimmering blossoms. Orris wood illuminates the base. Elegant, woody and powdery, orris wood adds a sophisticated softness.


Style: Floral


Notes:


- Top: clementine flower.


- Middle: white lilac.


- Base: orris wood.


Mood: Pure delight.

ONWARD 2018 Hawkeye Ranch in Redwood Valley, Petillant Naturel, Sparkling Rose of Pinot Noir - 1 Bottle


This Rosé of Pinot noir Pét-Nat is loaded with ripe summer berries, floral and citrus notes and is very alive! The opening aromatics explode from the glass and are lively, fresh, and mysterious. To follow are notes of strawberry fields, citrus blossom, warm brioche toast with lemon curd and juicy berries…and a refreshing hint of mint….and did I mention soft tiny delicate bubbles!


This pretty pink bubbly offers a unique combination of youthfulness and complexity. I liken her to my 5-year-old daughter who is spunky as they come…yet wise beyond her years and well…also often dresses in pink-e-e-y!


The Pétillant Naturel is Onward’s sparking expression of the Onward Rosé of Pinot, which is the result of an intentional rosé program, picked expressly for rosé and whole cluster pressed.


This wine stays true to the nature of an authentic Pétillant Naturel style wine: I encouraged native yeast fermentation, which finished in the bottle, with no sugar or other juice added.

ONWARD WINES are single-vineyard, site-driven wines, and Farmstrong Wines are blends, and in both expressions, the vineyard sites are very special to me. I am a true believer in personal connection and there is a story behind each vineyard site and how it came to be part of my portfolio. In these stories, you will learn more about the people behind these vineyards. I liken my connection to these vineyards to that of one’s favorite shirt or coffee mug or chair. Like a well-worn fabric or a slightly chipped mug that may have initially caught my eye for its beauty, but over the years has won my heart because it just feels right. When it comes to vineyards this happens too, because of a combination of my connection with the vines themselves and my connection with those that tend them. For me, the grower's hands are most definitely part of the terroir.


My style is about letting the vines speak. They are the art, I am the canvas, and my job is to give them a chance to share their beauty in each and every vintage. My decisions are driven by the vineyard and the vintage, my cellar practices are to uphold the truths I find in the vineyard. To this end, I pick early looking for a balance of flavors at lower ripeness, as I find this is when each vineyard is in its most unique expression of self.
