Winemaker's Notes:
This white Rhone style wine from our biodynamic estate vineyard in the Santa Ynez Valley is a blend of roussanne, marsanne, viognier and grenache blanc. Elegant and aromatic with wild floral notes on the nose and a rich crispness of apple, orange blossom, passion fruit and subtle apricot flavors on the palate. The exquisite balance of acids and fruit combine with the lingering vibrant freshness leaves you craving a second glass. Ideal with spicy foods or chicken dishes. Summer in a glass.
