2017 Vintage- The 2017 has a touch more Grenache Blanc and Vermentino than years previous, providing excellent acidity and a saline edge to the otherwise round, warm tropical and stone fruits found each year in this wine. Since it sees all French oak barrels (of which only 10% are new) and they don’t stir the lees, all the of texture comes from the grapes themselves. Sun, warm rocks, white pepper, straw, and tons of white peach and nectarine on the long finish.
