Fanucchi Wood Road Vineyard Trousseau Gris

I only know a few vintners (okay only 2) who make a Trousseau Gris and both do a great job.

First, let me preface this by thanking 750 Wines for squeezing our group into their schedule...twice in one day! Yes, we had such a great experience with Elizabeth Vianello and David Stephens that we came back a few hours later. They know everyone and everything about California wines, winemakers and wineries. The "Splash and Dash" at 8:30 am is the best way to start any day!! We started with this crisp and dry Trousseau Gris from Zeitgeist. Light minerality and a twinge of ginger.

Had this a few nights ago and quite enjoyed it, medium to light body, lightly fruity but dry, tasted like maybe a little oak but not too much.

Aug 6th, 20162015 | Orange flower water, kaffir lime, green papaya, and Smarties waft up and give way to yuzu citrus, a dusty volcanic sensation, and snappy lemon acidity. Lively, lovely, and a good friend to weeknight supper. *Sidenote* our fall weather here in soCA was a balmy 95 degrees this late October day.... Zeitgeist rescued me from unseasonable warmth with their sunny disposition.
