TASTING NOTES

This beautiful Rhône-style white wine blend of Marsanne, Roussanne, and Viognier is a superb standout! The super bright & intensely concentrated bouquet opens with lemon curd, Kaffir lime, candied ginger, fresh Summer jasmine and wild mint, while hints of Gala apple, sandalwood and chamomile add interest & depth. The palate is refreshing and clean, with vivacious acidity balanced by just a touch of creamy effervescence. Flavors of lemon zest, lavender lemonade, Mandarin orange and dried pineapple are complemented by a hint of vanilla cookie and tropical lychee. The lively flavors of the palate are carried through the finish with a vibrant swathe of acidity that keeps you coming back for more. Drink now through 2028.
