Navarro Vineyards
Anderson Valley Dry Muscat Blanc
Another year, another vintage of a fave. Pale white, excellent clarity. White floral nose. Grapefruit finish, rounded fruit flavor throughout. Good acidity, dry but the fruit flavors will fool you into thinking that there’s more sweetness there than there really is.

Dec 10th, 2021Not a detailed assessment: pale yellow, excellent clarity, notes of flowers and perfume in nose, mercifully dry in mouth with good acid and flavors of grapefruit rind and citrus fruit. Always a stellar choice

Sep 1st, 2021Dry, kumquat, peach flavors. Paired well with fresh veggie and herbed chicken flatbread, with Romano cheese (everything left over in the frig, basically). A creative pairing, I felt

Jan 24th, 2020Pale white, excellent clarity. Floral and Muscat perfumed notes in nose. Floral Muscat flavors with hints of kumquat. Mild skin astringency on finish. Bright acidity overall. Dry, dry, dry and just a tad fruity. 402 cases made. Website claims a peach flavor as well but it’s subtly expressed, not quite underripe.
