Tasting Comments
Leveroni Vineyard in southern Sonoma provided the floral aromas characteristic of the Musk clone, while Hi Vista Vineyard in western Carneros and Grossi Vineyard in northern Petaluma provided the wine with spiciness and crisp acidity.
Blending cuvées from three vineyards results in a wine with aromas of nectarine and grapefruit skin, fresh flavors of kiwi, lime and grapefruit, and a refreshing mineral and sharp acidity on the finish.
It can be enjoyed with a wide range of dishes, soups, salads and shellfish.
