Winemaker Notes
This wine is as beautiful to view as it is to drink.
It casts a shiny, translucent, yellow-green hue in the glass. Fragrant aromas of lemongrass, melon and crème brûlée are a result of blending the Chardonnay with the Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne.
Juicy flavors of pear, lemon, and ripe honeydew are offered in the smooth and lengthy finish.
Blancaneaux is a wonderful aperitif, and it is a great accompaniment to fresh shellfish like lobster and scallops.
With its rich notes of citrus and ginger, it will also nicely complement Chinoise (French-Chinese) and Vietnamese cuisines.
The range of flavors, density of palate and the interest of the aromatics of these four varietals create Blancaneaux –a wine that is worthy to accompany our flagship red wine –Rubicon.

A decade later, Francis Ford Coppola purchased 1,500 acres of this historic property and revived Captain Niebaum's fine winemaking tradition. In 1995, Niebaum-Coppola acquired the remainder of the property and restored the Inglenook Estate to its original dimensions.
