Emerald straw color. Aromas and flavors of lemon peel, peach skin and blossoms, and hint of petrol and lava with a supple, bright, dry-yet-fruity light-to-medium body and a sleek, refreshing, medium-long finish that presents impressions of clementine and minerals with crunchy, fine, fruit tannins and no oak flavor. A delightfully refreshing Riesling-led white blend that will be a great choice for everything you want to do with a white wine.

While white varieties such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling are very important throughout wine regions in the US, there are numerous others planted in various zones. In California, Italian varieties such as Pinot Grigio and Arneis can be found, while producers in Santa Barbara and Paso Robles work with white Rhone varieties such as Marsanne and Viognier.

New York State works with hybrid grapes, both French and American. Among these are Cayuga, Seyval Blanc and Vignoles. This last grape is also grown in various Midwest states such as Missouri, Indiana and Illinois.
