| Winemaker’s Notes: |
A winning blend of three classic Southern Rhône Valley varieties - Marsanne, Roussanne and Grenache Blanc - plus Sauvignon Blanc, our rich, fragrant 2009 Ranch White boasts lovely honeysuckle, pear drop, peach, toasted nut and pepper spice aromas. On the creamy, full-bodied palate, its lush white peach and honeyed citrus flavors pick up zesty spice and mineral tones throughout a long, crisp finish. Delightful now with grilled fish, roast chicken, Caesar Salad and white-sauced pastas, this Southern Rhône-style blend will develop further aromatic and flavor nuance with another 2-3 years' bottle age.
