Winemaker Notes

This wine opens with aromas of strawberry cream, watermelon, raspberry, and orange zest, followed by cranberry, white cherry and blood orange flavors on the palate. This refreshing and lively wine offers finesse balanced by refreshing acidity and an elegant finish.

Serve chilled, this wines light, fruit characteristics make it a natural choice for pairing with fresh seafood like salmon, crab or shrimp, and game meats like duck, Cornish hens, lamb, or turkey. Try with Moroccan couscous, Salade Nioise, melon and prosciutto, or chicken. Cheeses such as fresh chvre, Brie, Roquefort, fromage blanc or Mt. Tam Triple Cream are also delicious.
