Winemaking Notes
Awarded Best of Class and Gold medals in 2005, this lovely, crisp wine bursts with tropical fruit including mangoes, pineapple, passion fruit and guava.
Tasting Notes
A long cold fermentation in stainless steel tanks was used to emphasize the bright, crisp mineral qualities of the wine. The result, tropical aromas of mangoes, pineapple, passion fruit, guava, banana, and a touch of vanilla and coconut burst from the glass. This wine has a soft entry with a light mineral component and is followed by crisp acidity and a soft refreshing finish. Delicious with fresh seafood, or seared scallops over a bed of pasta.
