Phyllis Benham is. At the age of 14 she found her wings making history as one of the youngest female pilots to grace the US skies.

aromas of Pineapple, Lemon, Honeysuckle and Vanilla Bean: medium-fill bodied with vibrant and concentrated flavors of baked pear, nectarine and honeydew melon;  juicy acidity on the opulent finish.
