Easy to drink , dry with with floral end notes. Light on tannin and funk but still not a white wine. Great with food

Peaches and almonds on the nose, almost like a fino sherry. A soft and textured body, tart unripe nectarine. Perfect on a summer day!

Apricot in color with a mild citrus aroma. Zippy acidity but with a dry, heavier bodied finish. Notes of grapefruit and citrus pith. Would pair well with light Thai noodles or a heavier seafood dish.

Fantastic blend of whites, with heavy skin saturation that colors the wine into a light orange color, floral bouquet, has the sweetness of a Chardonnay with the tannins and spice of a light red. Pairs nicely with snapper.
