Pale lemon in color with a golden tint.
Great nose of lemons, citrus, pineapple, light banana and grapefruits.
Dry and fruity on the palate with grapefruit, lemon, passion fruits, peaches and green apples.
Full-bodied and creamy with a long buttery finish.
Refreshing and tasty. Paired great with shrimp.
Partially fermented and matured in oak barrels for a short period of time.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
90 points Wine Enthusiast.

Under $15 white Rhone blend. Lots of stone fruit with a little residual cloying sweetness around the lips. Medium bodied with some creaminess. Finishes with white pepper. Good overall value with character & body. I'd suggest drinking this with a slight chill almost tepid side to enjoy the whole experience. This appears to be an exclusive private label, but be sure to ask your favorite 😉 wine person to find you something similar in their store and remember to #SupportSmallBusiness where ever you can.

The 2013 is lighter body and more delicate and flowery than the 2011. Has excellent notes of tea leaves, slight menthol, raspberries, black cherries. Goes down as smooth as ever and complements strong cheeses.

Very very fruity, but dry Blanc blend from rhone. This is very inexpensive for the quality. Tremendous white wine.
