Nose

A crisp, dry, floral white with aromas of green almond, honey and honey suckle.

Palate

Flavors of apple and pear.

Growing Conditions

In lesser grape growing areas this variety will set a large crop with little flavor, but in the cool Santa Maria Valley, the crop is small and intense and more importantly, the flavors and aromatics true to the variety.

Food Pairing

Drink this wine as a starter for any meal or with lighter fare such as quiche or crab salad.
