Philosophy

It’s been a few years since this wine has been made, and if you were a fan of the full throttle nature of those previous vintages, you won’t be disappointed. This vintage gave us spectacular growing conditions for white wine, with a cool spring and a little heat in May, we were off to a fast start. The summer was mild and the heat never came giving us wines with amazing intensity. Tropical fruits mixed with grapefruit and gooseberry, thrown on top of warm yellow fruits such as peaches and nectarines; a combination you can’t resist. If you are a classic, understated white wine drinker, this wine is not for you; this is for those that demand massive waves of fruit and a palate to match. If this is you, then order your case and get ready for some fun.
