Winemaker Notes: 

"Aromas of pleasant white rose petal, and creme fraiche. Crisp on the palate with hints of pear and white peach and grapefruit. Refreshing and cleansing.  This wine is gentle, like a summer breeze off the Mediterranean.  Enjoy the flavors of soft citrus, key lime pie and gentle floral notes.  The pronounced minerality, refreshing acidity and lingering finish make this the perfect white wine.  Relax, enjoy a sip and feel the romance of an Italian interlude." 

Vineyard Notes: 

"This grape is rare, yet one of the finest Italian white wines with origins from Sardenia and the Ligurian coastline.  Our grapes are from the Napa Carneros growing region. The legendary Mahoney family is one of the truly dedicated growers and champions of Vermentino in California. The unique Carneros soil structure has mix rap, adobe and river rock with great minerality and clay that allows for struggle."
