Description
In a nutshell:
A crisp, bright, and lively white wine with fruit and floral flavours from California.
The lowdown:
Pine Ridge estate is spread over 80 hectares, across five sub-zones of Napa. The Chenin Blanc and Viognier for this wine is grown in Clarksburg, an area best suited for these varieties. The climate is warm, but with a constant breeze, freshness and acidity is maintained in the grapes. The grapes were destemmed and crushed upon arrival to the winery. The free run juice was blended with the press fraction to increase the mouth feel of the wine. Two different yeasts were used to add complexity and aromatics. The wine was aged in stainless steel vats to retain the pure varietal fruit characteristics. On the nose, aromas of honeysuckle, orange blossom, nectarine, white peach, and ginger spice are present. On the palate, the ripe fruit flavours of tangerine, lime and lemon curd are accompanied by herbal notes of lemongrass and ginger. This wine is medium bodied with refreshing acidity and a round finish.
When to drink:
Would pair well with vegetarian dishes of root vegetables and squashes.
