Winemaker's Notes:
Once again in this exceptional vintage Bonterra has layered sister White Rhone
varietals Marsanne and Roussanne to the blend, adding a dimension of
complexity. Marsanne provides a rich texture and green apple flavor, while
Roussanne contributes pear and haunting floral notes.
As you begin to drink, powerful aromas of freshly sliced harvest peach, hints of
honeysuckle and an exotic note of jasmine dominate. Peaches and cream remain
a sensory signature of this wine. Complex fruit flavors of apricot and peach are
overlaid with notes of oak vanilla. Balance and elegance will
become the watchword for this vintage. The wine is crisp,
yet creamy, a grand alternative to everyday whites. |
