A unique domestic wine, made in the style of Bordeaux’s great white wines (It’s 66% Semillon, 18% Sauvignon and 16% Muscadelle). While it’s a bit riper than its French counterparts, it succeeds with aromas and flavors of apple, fig, pear and citrus that intertwine on a viscous midpalate and finish with a bright acid pop. A stony impression lingers, suggesting a creamy fish prep as a pairing. Tasty stuff!
Buty, Columbia Valley (Washington) Semillon Sauvignon Muscadelle 2017
