Description:
Grown in red decomposed granitic soils at 1400’ within Amador County, this warm mountainous site grows a unique expression of Chenin Blanc. The iron rich soils and exposure to the intense mountain sunshine ripen these thick-skinned golden grapes quickly and with loads of exotic fruit. The cold foothill nights help the grapes retain their acidity and freshness and the red granite gives the wine loads of minerality. A gorgeous balance of ripe California fruit and mouthwatering alpine freshness. Wet rocks and marble outline a sexy nose of Mirabelle plums, orange blossoms, Tangerine Dreams, lime zest and white flowers. Higher in acid and ripeness than all previous versions of this wine, but longer and more noble at the same time. The exotic fruit and a wall of spice keep the flavors coming, this wine is long and sexy on the palate and is best enjoyed with chilled seafood or grilled fish.
