South Coast Winery, California (United States) Verdelho 2016

Feb 8, 2017

By Rich Cook

Winemaker Jon McPherson started with a bang in 2015 with this grape, and the 2016 ramps things up from an already high standard.  An explosive nose of ripe nectarine, jasmine and wet stone lead you to a fresh, full palate of stone fruit and citrus, with mouth-filling texture and crisp refreshing acidity.  Bright Mexican lime zest finishes things off for the first of what you’ll find to be many sips.  Rockin’ good juice!  A Platinum Award winner at the 2017 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
