- Description
Orchard fruits layered with honey-cream, zippy acid and juicy peach aromas come together in this Lucius white from the Dry Creek Valley. Hints of white jasmine tea and delicate floral notes complete the package and adds that special extra layer of complexity. A versatile white for baked poultry, spicy Asian cuisines and sushi.
"Chenin Blancs of this quality are rarely encountered in California, which is lamentable. Crisp, fresh, flowery aromas lead to a light to medium-bodied white wine with loads of fruit as well as a seductive, feminine, elegant style. Consume it over the next year."
-Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate #208
