Grenache Blanc (Garnacha Blanc), Marsanne, Roussanne, Viognier

This Rhône-style blend showcases an enticing nose of spicy pears and white peaches, almond paste/marzipan, a touch of honeysuckle perfume. Multi-dimensional (many layers), a hard-to-describe range of aromatics, intriguing, almost mysterious! In the mouth it is crisply dry, yet creamy and round, and full-bodied, with nice almond paste on crisp-yet-juicy pear fruit..
