Navarro Vineyards, Anderson Valley (Mendocino, California) Muscat Blanc 2017

Jan 20, 2019

By Robert Whitley

 Muscat is a tricky grape to ferment to dryness but Navarro is adept at avoiding the bitterness that mars some dry Muscats.  The 2017 offers aromas of white flowers, apple and a very subtle touch of citrus.  Bone dry, smooth and a Platinum Award winner at the 2019 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
