Sunshine In A Bottle

When the weather turns hot our thoughts turn toward white wines like today's offering. In a way, it's like discovering sunshine in a bottle.

Our wine today can't help but remind you of swimming in the sea, lounging under the hot sun and sipping cold wine on the deck. In other words, what we're trying to say is:

This white wine should be in your icy cooler.

Terra d'Oro Chenin Blanc/Viognier 2014 Terra d'Oro Chenin Blanc/Viognier 2014

Grapes for the Terra d'Oro Chenin Blanc & Viognier are handpicked from select vineyards. The Chenin Blanc, a versatile white grape variety that can range from dry to very sweet and typically offers high acidity, comes from the Clarksburg appellation. This region is well-known for producing Chenin Blanc thanks to the rich soils and maritime influence.

The Viognier is from Amador County. The high elevation, warm days and cool nights bring intense varietal character to the fruit. Viognier is most notably produced in the Loire Valley of France and is great for blending with Chenin Blanc to add a plush character to the wine.

The Terra d'Oro Chenin Blanc & Viognier displays luring aromas of juicy tropical fruits, fresh lemon and hints of spice. The palate boasts flavors of pink grapefruit, papaya, and subtle sweet mango.

This wine is lively, refreshing and well balanced with crisp acidity – perfect for a warm afternoon or during sunset hour. For a delicious pairing, serve this wine with shellfish, ceviche sashimi or a spicy tuna roll and shishito peppers.

"Offers a bold, refreshing mix of ripe, mouthwatering peach and lemon flavors, with plenty of ginger, dried floral and green tea accents. Plush and refreshing, with a lingering, spicy finish. Drink now. 10,000 cases made." (Wine Spectator)

"This dry, light-bodied wine smells vivid and fresh, like sliced peaches and cantaloupe. It tastes equally fruity and ripe, backed by good acidity to keep it mouthwatering. Notable richness in the texture helps the flavors linger on the finish." (Wine Enthusiast)
