Winery Review: "Made from 85% Chardonnay, 15% Viognier. 30% malolactic fermentation, 30% was aged in French oak barrels. Brilliant yellow golden color with green hints. The wine is crisp and filled with white peach, pear, green apples flavors, toasty vanilla. Elegant and luscious wine, well balanced. Crisp and long finish. Pairs well with creamy soups, pork, veal, vegetables."
My Review: When I was told that this wine had 14.5% alcohol in it, I did not think I would enjoy it because I thought it would have very strong tannins. However, I really enjoyed this. It had a delicious green apple aroma and was sweet on the palate. It had a light taste, soft tannins and a long finish. I would purchase this wine again.
