Needs time to open and breathe but once it has, you pick up on the subtle floral and sweet notes. Hints of citrus and minerality but it all works really well together for a dry finish. Opened in honor of my Mom on what would have been her 59th Birthday because this was one of our favorite wineries in Solvang 💗

Floral / tropical nose, lots of minerals on the mid palate, hint of citrus on the finish.

I had heard of Cortese as an Italian variety, but always assumed it was a red grape not white. Only a few acres grown in CA. #ILearnedSomethingNewToday. Santa Barbara County Vintners Association Spring Festival.
