A white wine made from Sauvignon, Vermentino, Roussanne, Viognier, Chardonnay, and Muscat! The result of blending all these varieties is a dry wine that is easy to drink and enough going on to keep you interested to the bottom of the bottle. It has a lovely fresh fruit salad and grapey character, with good floral notes and a lovely touch of aniseed on the length. It is well balanced and has a good length.
A full tasting note to follow.
