39073...no idea what vtg it is bc it doesn't say. While working at TFW I thought it worth visiting PWC bc I read numerous things about what an engaging visitor experience it was. It's the building prev Franciscan that T and I visited on our 1st ever trip to Cali. We enjoyed some things ,it didn't suck but I struggle to recall what the wow factor was or was supposed to be....tasting this wine at end of 2020 I think we bought it for T bc it drinks like a chrd. Is it 50/50??borders on cloying. All orchard fruit, no citrus. Acidity is hidden. Drinkable but not lovable. Aromatically it reaks of Cali chard w hint of vio (website says IT HAS touch of vio-wow!). Theres an oily ness. Blind I wouldn't be anywhere near chenin but if I drank wine in high school i prob would have loved this. Glad we only bought 1. 14.5%

Lot No 36807. Bought at the tasting room in 2019, drank during quarantine 2020. A funky vacation in a class.

Very full for a white (15.14% ABV). Honey, melon, pineapple, and vanilla oak. Close to a Chardonnay style with a long floral finish. Blended with Viognier.
