With Petit Manseng in the lead, we feel the density of aroma and texture that are inherent to this grape. The aromatics flow from pear to peach to mango and are repeated as flavors in the palate, where the Sauvignon Blanc steps in with snappy green flavors, both herbs and piquant orchard fruit, and adds acid precision and a mineral finish. There is an additional layer of flavor and texture from the malo that keeps this from being a “fresh fruit  bomb”, and you might find yourself in a more contemplative posture than you would have expected drinking a wine in a clear bottle and screwcap. This wine over-delivers in every vintage, but especially in 2021.

Petit Manseng 59%, Sauvignon Blanc 38%, Malvasia Bianca 2%, Muscat 1%
